Future: Information Technology
Globalisation, automation and rapidly changing needs mean the future of employment will probably look very different to now. In fact, many current careers won’t exist in the next 10 to 20 years. So, it’s critical that students ask the important question: ‘Will my chosen study path lead to strong job opportunities after graduation and beyond?’
In this series we’re exploring a range of occupations forecast to have strong employment prospects in the future. Some careers in the tech industry are quickly emerging. Plus, there are other existing careers that will also have an important place in the employment opportunities of tomorrow.
When it comes to transformation and innovation, no other career pushes the boundaries more than information technology, otherwise known as IT. Today, we’re looking at the job prospects on offer, as well as the study pathways you can take if you’re looking for a career in IT.
Technology forms the basis of almost everything we do in our daily lives. It gets you from one place to another, feeds you, helps you work and study, and makes your life easier. And behind that technology are the information technology professionals who created it.
