To encourage college graduates to go to work in the under-developed parts of the country, China's Ministry of Education is working with the relevant departments in the country to draw up a regulation to help college students who have worked in the west of China at a grass roots level for a specified number of years to pay their tuition fees and student loans.

In addition, Ministry of Education plans to offer credits to college students taking part in grass roots programs when they want to take a Master Degree examination and exempt those senior vocational school graduates who've served at the grass roots level for the specified number of years from taking the adult college entrance examinations.

To support college graduates who devote themselves to the national defense, the Ministry of Education is coordinating with the relevant departments to draw up a long term development policy for college students who are willing to enroll to the army after their graduation, as well as asking the political and legal colleges to give priority in enrolling retired soldiers for an advanced education.

In addition the Ministry of Education will work with the relevant departments to expand special teaching vacancies in the compulsory education stage in the rural areas. In 2009, about 30,000 college graduates will be recruited to teach in the primary and junior middle schools in the rural areas of West China. Ministry of Education asks that priority to be given to college students who've taken the special teaching position when offering a teaching post.

In 2009, Ministry of Education will increase student enrollment for subjects that are of greatest value to society.
