According to a recent Bureau of Labor Statistics Career Outlook paper, “STEM 101: Intro to Tomorrow’s Jobs,” STEM occupations were projected to grow by more than 9 million jobs between 2012 and 2022.
Fast-growth occupations include computer systems analysts, applications software developers, and systems software developers.
Jem Pagán is currently the director of technology strategy for JNK Securities, a research and trading firm for institutional investment organizations in New York City.
JNK research on trends in digital transformation shows that mobility, cyber security, data-driven processes and decisions, the Internet of Things, and autonomous driving are changing the STEM fields.
Many science, technology, and engineering fields involve change, but how are careers going to change? Which careers are going to be hot by the time the next generation of STEM graduates hit the streets?
“Those questions drove the list of my 10 top careers in the next decade,” Pagán said. “I think my research demonstrates a lot of adoption is taking place right now and for the next seven years.”
“Almost every activity we take online is digitized and tracked,” said Jake Porway, former New York Times data scientist and now CEO of Data Kind, at a recent SAS Global Forum keynote.
