Because of their professional limitation, the situation for normal college graduates'employment is not optimistic. However, under such a background, our country is still confronting with the status in quo of teacher's shortage for basic education in west rural areas. Compared with the national level, besides the lack of teachers in west rural areas, there also have been the structural shortage such as age, educational level, specialty and so on. This phenomenon shows that education does not match with the labor market in China, the supply does not match the demand in structure at present.The study analyses the status quo of the difficulty of normal college graduates'employment and the shortage of teachers in west rural area from two perspectives of the supply and the demand by using data collected from Gansu survey, and explores the reasons, then put forward some relevant advice.This paper consists of five parts.Partâ… , Introduction. Including the background of the research and put forward the problems, illustrating the intention and meaning of the research as well as the data and methods of the study.Partâ…¡, Theoretics and literature review. The writer understands the related literature of China and abroad based on analysis of literature concerned, which establishes the basic theory of innovation.Partâ…¢, Descriptions and analysis of the status quo on the the difficulty of normal undergraduates'employment and the shortage of teachers in west rural area.Partâ…£, Descriptions of the causes of this phenomenon. From the perspective of the demand side, the rural western areas demand teachers, but they could not obtain the suffcient teachers resourcs. From the perspective of the supply side, on the one hand normal undergraduates would not work in rural, on the other hand the normal undergraduates want to work in rural, but they could not have these jobs, and they left the rural after they worked there sometimes.Partâ…¤, Countermeasures and suggestion. From the perspective of the demand side, the Government should increase the input of educational expenditure, and stress the duty of government. They should also expand the appointing rights of rural primary and secondary schools and deepen the reform of the personnel system and adjust the unbalanced prorate standard of teachers to students of primary and secondary schools between city and countryside. Furthermore Government should set up some safeguard mechanism in countryside which encourage normal undergraduates to work in rural. From the perspective of the supply side, the universities should actively promote the preferential policies of the employment and foster some excellent teachers which are suited to the needs of primary and secondary schools in rural, and strengthen the normal undergraduates'practice in rural in order to increase the normal undergraduates'ability to adapt to rural. Besides, university should help the undergraduates to make a professional planning as soon as possible. At the same time, the normal undergraduates should strengthen the consciousness of responsibility and transform their concepts, they should also seize opportunities, improve quality, orientate accurately, and enhance their own competitiveness simultaneously.
