In this fast-changing world, you’d better think long and hard about which career path you should choose. Many of today’s jobs will disappear, and many new ones will replace them. Here are 9 new jobs that will be in great demand over the next 20 years.
1. Body part maker - Labs around the world are already well underway experimenting with human body parts grown in test tubes for instant transplantation. Hundreds of thousands of bio-engineers will be needed to cater to the demand for made-from-scratch livers, kidneys, hearts, lungs and more.
2. Nano-engineer - Nano-technology is an incredibly broad field with an even broader array of possibilities. Nano engineers of all breeds will have no trouble finding work in this quickly expanding sector that will be applied to almost every industry.
3. Robotics specialist - A wide range of industries, from manufacturing to service, employ increasing amounts of robots. This trend will continue and accelerate in the coming decades, and anyone with the relevant know-how for robotics design, programming and servicing will be highly valued.
4. Genetics counselor/therapist - Your gene analysis may reveal that you have a predisposition for a particular disease or you may want your child to have blue eyes or be six feet tall etc. Genetics technologies become more sophisticated each year and their application ever more prevalent. This will create a demand for medical professionals who specialize in gene recognition, interpretation and manipulation.
5. Space architects and tour guides - Virgin Galactic starts commercial flights next year, albeit at the rather steep price of $200,000. But space travel will become affordable, safe and relatively common in the next 10-20 years, and those well-to-do space tourists will need all the guidance and amenities that regular tourists get. Any sort of business and hospitality-related job you can think of on earth will also be needed in space, and then some.
6. Holographer - In the not-so-distant future, entertainment platforms such as video games, movies, the internet as well as live sporting events will be served in three dimensions. You’ll be able to attend a university class in your living room with a 3D holograph of your professor. Japan is already proposing to show 3D holographic matches from their world cup in hundreds of stadia around the world. These revolutionary technologies will be highly sought after and those able to create them will be compensated accordingly.
7. Transportation engineers - Transportation technologies are changing rapidly, in accordance with changing preferences. The demand for car-engineers will decrease, while engineers who can design subterranean maglev trains, automated delivery drones and driverless cars will be swimming in job offers.
8. Factory farmer - A day will come, in not so long, when we leave the days of land depletion behind and start growing crops, and even artificial meat, from scratch. This will spark an entire new sector of factory farming, in which seasons, the amount of rain and sun, and availability of arable land cease to be factors of production. Apart from the obvious environmental and economic implications, this will entail the growth of a new generation of food producers.
9. Computer forensic - In generations to come, computers will be literally ubiquitous. They’ll be embedded in clothing, kitchen appliances, furniture, indeed most things. This will give rise to a generation of criminals, and along with it, a new type of investigation into the traces they leave in these tiny, nearly invisible computers, just like the fibers and sperm stains the CSI team finds in the hotel room rug.
