CAREER OPTIONS - STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics)
namaskar friends this is anjali drolia your career coach career counselor now today i will tell you about the stem courses now stem the acronym is science technology engineering and mathematics so you must be wondering why i am using the term stem instead of sciences or mathematics engineering separately one my reason of using because any piece speaks in volume about the interdisciplinary and the multidisciplinary approach so in this scenario you have to speak of these subjects in terms of multidisciplinary approach where two or three disciplines they are working together and career are based on it i'll tell you the reason for it because stem why it's a buzzword now and why it is so popular nowadays because this is highly competitive field in this globalized society moreover for the career-minded students it means wide range of job opportunities so that they can choose variety of emerging careers i remember when i was a student at that time you were not having so many choices the streams were in silos but situation is different now so let's talk why this stem is serving as the foundation of interdisciplinary approach to learning and where academic principles are applied to real life scenarios so moreover you know that nap speaks in volume about the multidisciplinary approach and your education should be such that it should lead to good job opportunities it should lead to skill development it should prepare you for the your future career gone are the days when your subject of study and your career was not having any correlation now whatever you are going to study should be in sync with what you want to do in your future so in short i can say that in stem curriculum students are taught to apply the concepts of science technology engineering and mathematics and they incorporate them into the real world scenario so we see that due to technological advancement future jobs will require people with skills you can gain during the stem education so for this reason not only these stem degrees are popular but they are equally supported by the governments and other national and international institutions around the world stem courses generally comprise four years of multidisciplinary study and with greater depth so these 10 degrees are very popular and the reason is they provide you the 21st century skills including the critical thinking then flexibility about the choice of the subjects and the most important about the skill development as we know it's this phrase a journey of thousands miles starts with the little step so this journey of your career start with little steps the step one choice of subjects step two the choice of career step 3 choice of country like this which is summarized as 3c so you know um science and technology is replacing the humans it's not hidden anymore talk of the drones you know the time is not far that we'll see even the pizza delivery your medical delivery will be help will be done with the help of drones can you imagine the robots doing the swap collection for your corona testings then artificial intelligence induced garbage sorting machines self-driven car computers will replace the human doctors so it will be about the spatial computing think of e-car e-rickshaw e-autos the automatic segment is ready for future enormous changes you'll see the advanced features in the car such as your gps navigation easy gps navigation keyless car usb voice gestures mobile connectivity means you think of it and you'll get it similarly future health care about the surgeries will be done by the robots under their instructions and vigilance of the doctors surgical navigation surgical devices so this is all about the future health care having said that we can't uh do any of these things without passion so you have to learn from the people who are passionate about what they do so whatever you are doing the bottom line is that you should make sure that you have interest for that particular career and these stem courses as i've already pointed out they are providing numerous job opportunities higher salaries as compared to the other ones so when we say stem which is science technology engineering in mathematics so let's take each subjects one by one first start with science so you have the option either to go for medical or the non-medical stream so if you want to go for the medical stream you have the option to write your entrance me the child who is having p c b as the combination in grade 12 they have the option of writing neet exam at the end of the class 12. now that is going for mbbs degree or bds degree now apart from that those children who are keen in research field or those who are not eligible for neet exams the other options which are stored for you include you can go for bse botany zoology physiology microbio environmental science genetics agriculture so on and so forth along with that you will see some multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary approach combinations like we have in forensic which requires knowledge about physics your chemistry as well as biology so it's a multidisciplinary approach then allied medicine or bachelor of physiotherapy nutrition and dietics so these are all multidisciplinary approach subjects now student who is from pc m that is physics chemistry maths background in grade 12 they have the options of either going for psc in physics chemistry mathematics this is a hardcore one apart from that they can go for integrated or you can say the multidisciplinary combination like bsc in bioinformatics which is a combination of computer science physics and biology or biomedical engineering again it's a combination of biology physics your mechanical engineering so various other fields are involved in it basically biomedical engineering deals with making of your prosthetics making of all the medical equipments which are required during the surgeries it could be the pacemaker it could be the contact lens for eyes or dialysis machine so all these are part of biomedical engineering similarly biotechnology so biotechnology means in the field of you can say food industry or dairy industry all these things you'll find huge advancement in field of preservation techniques in in packaging technique so all these are part of the bio technology then biochemistry which is the combination of biology and chemistry so here you have again it's a biochemical um this is a multi-disciplinary approach you can either go with entrance that is your je mains advance so completing class 12 you have the option of writing the entrance exam if you clear that you can go for engineering in any of the field like your typical ones that is your civil mechanical computer science all these things or you can go for the emerging one like biomedical engineering bioinformatics food technology biotechnology and so on and so forth now i have mentioned over here science other disciplines now the children who have studied science till class 12 they have even the option of moving into humanities or the commerce other streams after class 12 means for doing ug course they can move to humanities or the commerce but this transition is not possible for a student of either humanities or a commerce so this is another you can say a broad window for a science student they can diversify into interior design animation graphics multimedia even liberal arts fashion technology mass com journalism and hospitality hotel segment so they are plethora of options you need your class 12 with minimum 50 marks now if you want to do hotel management there is an entrance for it if you want to go into uh liberal arts you have the flexibility of choosing major and minor of your choice it could be one physics one from science stream and other from commerce stream so if you want to go into designing you have to appear for the entrance that is not conducted by the nid that is national institute of design want to go in fashion and apparel industry that is entrance conducted by nift that is national institute of fashion technology now coming to the hardcore technology and engineering so these are the you can say the standard ones or the typical one the branches of engineering which were existing 50 years back and even today civil engineering chemical engineering instrumentation by this electrical electronics and some emerging like computer science engineering electrical and electronics engineering electronics and communication engineering these are upcoming branches then you have various other emerging technological field which includes aeronautical engineering which includes automation and robotics or petroleum engineering which guarantees you some government job even ceramic engineering structural engineering so these are the emerging field power engineering robotic engineering i've already spoken then textile construction transportation so these are niche field now you have to identify your passion your niche and once you identify your passion you should go in that specialized field the prospects of you growing and being successful skillful are many chances becomes many fold now this slide clearly talks about the new emerging technologies it could be artificial intelligence machine learning deep learning data science analysis cloud computing robotics and trolls these are the buzzwords now you'll find in every engineering colleges these are the most sought options among the students now artificial intelligence is like when we talk of alexa or when we talk of the motor less driverless car so this is all about the artificial intelligence machine learning you know where interaction is between machine to machine it is now more so machine learning deep learning these are the emerging fields then data science data science is most popular among all reason student from commerce also can do a degree in data science even a student from science background can study data science engineering student can also do data science and cloud computing engineering and all so what is actually data center everything is all about data so how you and how you uh interpret or analyze your data everything is related to analytics now if you see in your facebook or youtube that every information is properly managed like how many hours your channel has been watched by the audience how many new subscribers are added to your channel so every analysis every analytics is done by the data analysis data analysis scientist so it can be interpreted if you have a data you can be calculated in n number of ways now even the teachers who are teaching in various sections and they want to know the performance of the students in particular you can say topic so that also can be analyzed with the help of data now coming to the cloud computing what is cloud computing whatever information we have it is if you store that huge info it's a huge information today there is no depth of any information you put anything in google you are spoiled for choices you type the word career you are you'll have enormous options about the career but the concern is the problem is to understand the useful information so you need a specialized person for understanding that and that specialized person comes for like field of career it is a career coach for field of medicine it is a doctor or field of teaching it's a teacher so like this now coming to the computing so all these information so many information you can't keep everything in your laptop desktop or whatever is your appliance so the information goes to the cloud so anytime you can access your information it's a huge information and the person the engineers who are keeping control of all the information they are into the cloud computing don't you think it's a it's a you can say if any information is stored in the cloud the beauty of it whether you are in india or abroad or germany anywhere you can just open or get those information from the cloud then is robotics and drones so robotics and drone these are going to be the you can say the most important discoveries of the 21st centuries so time our time is not behind when you'll find your deliveries are happening your deliveries for your because so much of traffic will be there on the land now the people are uh now venturing into the you can say air is the means of communication or the transportation now it's very much into discovery so drones any career or any people who have the knowledge in drones who know are into the making of drones who know how to operate the drones they will be they'll have an edge and those careers will be more prevalent then you can see internet of things edge computing cryptocurrency these are all the new buzzwords now the new technologies then comes the emerging technologies how they are used or integrated in the engineering when we say multidisciplinary what actually i'm talking you'll have the feel of it now when i say drones so drones are actually part of aeronautical engineering it's a part of aerospace so those who are studying the aeronautical engineering they are into the making of space vehicles robotics drones so they are working on the real life situation so these will be the future options of the transport then civil engineering so you know civil engineers they are into the construction every designing they do on 2d then they put it into converted to 3d now if they have some access of 3d printers this will really ease their life it will help the process in making these smart homes now designer using internet of things so uh when we say augmented reality so we suppose you are teaching student about something about the dinosaurs that is about the jurassic period so you can't bring that environment now but that can be augmented virtual reality it can be created with the help of technology that is augmented 80 that is augmented reality or virtual learning or virtual reality similarly chemical engineering you'll find the days are not far when the robots will go into the oil fields and do it you will do the digging and they they will be replaced by the human so with time the human interference will be reduced and it will be replaced by robots drones machines everything then come communication branches communication now we are having 4g 5g is about to come so once the 5g is there it will be a revolution in the field of communication you can in fraction of seconds you can upload the data you can download it you'll have access for everything in a short duration of time electrical branches now what they are doing electrical branches they are into making of electrical vehicles electrical vehicles automotive system that is electrical cars e-cars driverless cars so how it is possible with the help of multi-disciplinary approach mechanic tronics is another branch which is too much in flavor now this is dealing with the they are children from mechanical engineering electrical engineering electronics engineering and making of robots e-cars that is automatic car automobiles it's all part of the mechanics so this clearly indicates the various fields of application of science and technology now doctors using robot for surgery teacher using data analysis for the students pharmacists using artificial tools for drug discovery now then robots are used to handle patients with parkinson's diseases economics predicting the market using artificial intelligence mathematics used for data analysis to predict climatic condition so drones are used for in your agricultural farming the for spraying the pesticides chemicals all these drones are used so you'll find the science and technology will touch each and every part of our aspect of our life now coming to the last stream that is the mathematics now mathematics is always regarded as one of the key subjects among the students fraternity it's very important opting for maths as a career is a positive move as it opens up wide employment opportunities in various fields such as teaching mathematical modeling actuarial sciences cryptocurrency statistics so you talk of any field you'll find maths is not left behind so it is one among the few subjects where the higher you go in studies the more logical reasoning is required so the aspirants who wish to start a career in mathematics must possess the skills like logical thinking precise thinking exceptional skills that is problem solving skills so maths open those two bright and promising careers today a person with exceptional mathematical skill is highly desiring the market you see the many careers emerge when you have maths as one of the options a career in mathematics is not only challenging but it's equally exciting so let's see what are the options for a student who is having pcm in class 12 and wants to go for mathematics in the undergraduate program with mathematics you can either go for giving the entrance you can go in like the institute indian statistical institute you can study statistics that you have to giving the entrance or you can study bsc in mathematics a student from commerce background also can study become uh i mean they can go higher studies in mathematics or student from humanities dream person a child who studied class 12 with mathematics or economics of the subject can go as we can do be in mathematics now you can go for actuarial science which requires mathematics along with accountancy and economics as the subjects so you have various options and all these are of three years goals now what are the career prospects huge career prospects are there usually i mean you can work as actuaries cost estimator mathematicians statisticians so what the actuaries are i mean they are into the insurance policies and all lic's so all the insurance scheme that is worked upon by the actuaries then comes the statistics data like birth rate mortality rate retirement rate all these things these data these statistics are kept by the statistician suppose now the olympics just now concluded so which country got how many medals which how many were the new players who have got the middle which country has got maximum middle in um so and so discipline which country is doing better in so various kind of analysis these are done by the statisticians then the role of cost estimator is to assess how much a plan or a future project will cost and based on it they give the recommendation of future engineers predicting their profitability so a mathematician must play a significant role in developing the new concepts in mathematics and solve bigger problems in engineering economics and scientific science domains so top mathematical colleges in india to name few isi kolkata then indian institute of sciences bangalore then tifr mumbai institute of mathematical science chennai chennai mathematical institute to name few so if this information of mine has really helped you please write in the comment box if you want any more information please mention that as well so please do like subscribe my channel thank you so much
