Okay Google, Alexa can be simply put to work by giving it the command.
From Telegram/Letter to video calls/Zoom video classes.
Do you imagine there was time we use letter to send messages and wait for long to get replies and now we can see and talk to the person sitting at far distance from us?
So this is science and technology that have changed the world, life styles, and brought remarkable changes which were unimaginable just a few years back..
When we talk about careers in Science we usually stop after Engineering, Architecture, Medical, Defence and so on.
So with the advancements, be it in any field like technology, medicine, design etc Study of Science plays a vital role.
So here we put light on some upcoming Careers-
Environmental Science-
Embracing the 3R’s, reduce, reuse, and recycle
Environmental scientists study subjects like the understanding of earth processes, evaluating alternative energy systems, pollution control and mitigation, natural resource management, and the effects of global climate change. Environmental issues almost always include an interaction of physical, chemical, and biological processes.
Environmental science lets you recognize that environmental problems such as climate change, global warming, ozone layer depletion, acid rains, and impacts on biodiversity and marine life are not just national problems, but global problems as well. So, concerted effort from across the world is needed to tackle these problems.
Course of Study: A Bachelor of Environmental Management/Science or a B.Tech in Environmental Engineering followed by a master’s in the field are required.
Data Science, Big Data
Big data is a term that describes the large volume of data – both structured and unstructured – that inundates a business on a day-to-day basis. But it’s not the amount of data that’s important. It’s what organizations do with the data that matters. Big data can be analyzed for insights that lead to better decisions and strategic business moves.
In a 2017 report, LinkedIn ranked Data Scientists and Big Data Engineers among the top emerging jobs.

Agricultural Sciences and Food Sciences
The job opportunities in agriculture are enormous. They’re going to be ever-growing, because our population is ever-growing, and the agriculture sector is what feeds everyone every single day – it’s never going to stop,”
Career opportunities like food production, agronomy, and biotechnology and livestock science are all on offer. And if you want to be hands-on in a supporting role, the thriving agribusiness sector opens up business-focused roles like managing money (agribusiness banking) or selling premium seafood (agribusiness marketing).
Course of Study: To build a career in this field, a bachelor’s and master’s degree in Agriculture, Horticulture, Agronomy or any of the sub-fields of agriculture is required. You can also consider a B.Tech and M.Tech in Agricultural Engineering.
Research
Research as a profession is for those who want to transform tomorrow‘s technologies and want to create life-changing technologies.
Any plan to take up careers in research and development should begin at the very young age, preferably when opting for stream at the +2 or the higher secondary level. The students can then opt for an undergraduate degree program that imparts education in the field in which the students aspire to take up research. The duration of the undergraduate study is as follows:
-
3 years for degree in Arts / science / Commerce / technology and application
-
4 years for engineering and Technology studies
-
5 years for medicine and related studies.
Bioengineering and Biomedical Engineering
Biomedical engineers study, design, develops and evaluate biological and medical systems and products such as artificial organs, prostheses, medical instruments and information systems. Biomedical engineers work closely with life scientists, chemists and medical professionals (physicians, nurses, therapists and technicians) on the engineering aspects of biological systems.
Biomedical engineering is a vast field which incorporates the knowledge of each & every field of engineering. Our field provides solutions to medical problems using technology.
Ethical Hacking and Cyber Security
Cybersecurity risks are one of the biggest threats to any business. According to research by Allianz, it's actually the number one concern for risk management professionals around the world, ahead of business disruptions, legislation changes and natural disasters.
Ethical Hackers use the same techniques as criminals to try and gain access to your systems - except they won't steal any data and they'll tell you what you're doing wrong.
