Fields Of Study That Are Likely To Thrive Within The Next Decade by codemint(op): 5:03pm On Oct 08, 2018
Within the next decade, some courses of study are likely to be scrapped out of record in the educational system while introducing a new learning curve to suit convention. Brian Greenberg has pointed out earlier that the real magic in the evolving technology is that it gives educators freedom and license into how school works.

What am I saying? the concurrent innovations in technology has come to stay and guess what it is already doing in the educational system, it is replacing old course of study with new suiting ones while at the same time modifying the way the old ones are being taught. Regrettably, Studies in the educational cadre, particularly project topics in education have recounted negligence to innovations in technology as a setback in education.

So what fields of study are likely to thrive in the next decade

Courses pertaining machine learning and artificial intelligence
While machine learning and artificial intelligence may be a little complicated, challenging and demanding, it has pulled a lot of interest to itself since the period of its inception. Meanwhile, a number of careers will be panning to that direction particularly the tech based ones including computer science, programming, computer engineering, cyber security and the lot.

Courses relating to communications
Obviously, we cannot talk of communication in this era without technology. Infact, it is the quest for enhanced and effective communication that has inspired artificial intelligence. So career courses in mass communication, human communication, development communication etc. are likely to stand the test of time if the learning curve is modified.

Accounting and banking related courses
Those who are or intending to join the banking sector are already feeling the impact of online banking. As much as technology may relief some of their duties in the future, the banking career cadre particularly in the educational system are likely to adapt to changing technology to meet their market need.

The above mentioned areas may not be all, a couple and more still exist. Whatever be the case, most learning curves that are seemingly embracing the use of technology are likely to stand the test of time. This is because the system of education is drifting away from teaching to learning.
