Abstract Objective To investigate the situation of career planning education for undergraduate students majoring in pediatrics in a certain university, and propose suggestions for pediatric career planning education. Methods A questionnaire was designed to investigate the career orientation and planning, current situation of career planning education, and ideal career planning education mode of 194 pediatric undergraduates in a certain university. The chi square test was used to analyze the career cognition of students in different grades. Results Among the 194 students, 54.64% of them thought pediatrics was not an ideal major, 73.20% of them did not know about pediatrics, and 84.67% of them were not satisfied with the existing career planning courses. There were significant differences in“Do you know about pediatrics?”(P=0.002)and“Have you carried out career planning for yourself ?”(P=0.014)among the students of low and middle and high grades, which indicated that more senior students knew about pediatric specialty and carried out career planning. Conclusion Pediatric undergratudes have insufficient understanding of pediatric specialty, unclear career orientation, and less scientific and systematic career planning education. It is necessary to carry out career planning education for pediatric students by combining diversified educational means and resource platforms.
