Career Options 2050

Childhood is indeed a beautiful phase. Isn’t it!! It’s full of dreams, full of aspirations. It is the time when kids adore the superheroes so much that they wish to be just like them when they grow up. But by the time they mature and get acquainted with the policies and regulations of the world, they develop a clear focus of a more realistic career. However, technology has changed and is constantly changing at a rapid pace and as such, professions that were dreams of an entire generation a decade back, have already passed to the oblivion. In developing countries, around 100 jobs have almost disappeared in the past two decades ranging from small retail vendors to artisans to petty labourers.

We, at the JP International School, believe that the way the technology is advancing, it would be wise for our kids to remain prepared for some completely out-of-the-box career options in the near future. In this article on career options 2050, you will know about four such job areas that are set to make the grade in the times to come.

Personal Microbiome Steward

If you remember, you would have studied in your biology class that the human body is home to a hundred trillion microorganisms. They are present on the exterior (skin) as well as the interior parts of the body. These organisms, it has been proved by scientists, play a pivotal role in human health. However, with environmental pollution taking its toll on the mankind, the future of biotechnology may rest on microbiome professionals. In the future, such professionals will be offering solutions on how to protect our own body microorganisms to make sure that we stay in the pink of health.

Organ Farmer

We all know how a lot of people lose their lives owing to the unavailability of organ donors in times of surgery for transplantation. If a transplant can be done in time, it can actually help avert a large number of human deaths. An idea to grow human organs in the laboratory was shaped up sometime in the past but is closer to reality now. Scientists have already discovered the magical power of stem cells to grow an entirely new organ from them. And Organovo, a San Diego based company has already started to design and build fully functional human tissues that can very well perform the work of human ‘originals.’ Such a career profile falls under the category of organ farming and will be a highly sought after career option in the times to come.

Mechanical Engineering Jobs

One of the oldest branches of engineering, mechanical engineering, dates back to the time when the first set of wheels were invented. In the entire course of mankind, new technological innovations in the form of sophisticated machines and devices have always improved the quality of human life. In the future, cars are expected to be manufactured entirely from carbon/fibre and not steel. A revolution is predicted to happen as per the changing requirements of customers. Car manufacturers will fight tooth-and-nail to design cars that are safer, smarter, and are more energy efficient. Combined with electrification of cars, mechanical engineering will see a new pattern of job profiles, very different from the ones present in the current times. One such profile could be an Accident control analyst or alike.

Financial Information Security Specialists

Security involving the finances of customers has always been a challenge for banks and financial institutions right from the olden days to the recent. With new methods of making payments, such as online transfer, cash withdrawal through ATMs, mobile wallets, and more such innovations on the way, there is no doubt about the fact that the role of financial security specialists will be high in demand in the near future. The job description would involve analyzing and establishing internet security cordons as per the requirement, defending all the systems and networks against any unauthorised access, recognizing abnormalities, and taking suitable actions to ensure that the confidentiality of customers is not compromised.

The population is on the rise. Colleges and higher education institutes all over the world are churning out graduates every year. Competition is getting fiercer with the changing times. Thus the best way to secure your place in the future world is to stay updated with the changing trends and the most advanced tools and technologies. Keep an eye on the trends and remain open to embrace the new. We, at JPIS, recognized as the best international school in Noida, believe that adopting the technological change has become the need of the hour, and the fact is that just as much the technology has penetrated into our personal sphere, so has it impacted the professional world as well. AI, Machine Learning, Blockchain, Cloud Computing, and more are the technologies that are quickly gaining a lot of prominence and as such, it would be vital if our children grow up informed of such trends. This is primarily why we at JPIS never leave any stone unturned in introducing our pupils to the trending technologies. We feel that making them aware of the probable types of careers that they will be witnessing in the future is a good way to ignite their interest that will help to drive them onto the path of excellence and success.
