Those who have studied economics in college may not necessarily be able to apply what they have learned in their daily lives and what is very important for everyone is to be able to manage their finances well because this is not an easy thing to do. carried out by each person and related to courses that are worth studying, of course this really depends on each individual and we cannot force other people to study a field that they really don't like, of course they won't be able to finish what they started, but we can suggest other people if they like it, of course they will follow what we suggest.
Those who have studied economics may fail to apply what they've learned or prove their worth in a job. Someone in IT who's a website developer or who's into data analysis has solid work that they can show to prove what they're capable of.

@OP, I've been in your position because I've studied economics, and there are many times that I look back and ask myself what I could have done differently. To be honest, I'm not sure what to answer. If I were to choose another sector, I'd choose something more specific than economics, such as logistics, anything in the IT sector, or even a handyman's skill, such as electrician, mechanic, plumber, and so on. I'm positive that you get my point.

Personally, I'm now after a data analysis course, not sure if it interests me enough to dig further, nor am I expecting to find a job through the course. I'm simply trying to broaden my horizons and see if I can excel at something specific that the job market requires.

I totally get what you're saying, Economics is too broad for its own good. I also really considered data analysis, and probably even fell in love with the idea of being an at-home data analyst. Chill life, an organized one at that, have all the time in the world and earn money from the comfort of my study chair. But, in as much as that sounds catchy, I guess I'm also in love with the idea of owning a business. You see, I found this as a result of my country going through an economic crisis, Andi realized after so much studies that the industrial sector in my country is underdeveloped because everybody is just trying to earn online at home and no one is barely coming out to create entrepreneurial ventures anymore. So, I can contribute big time by producing goods people would normally export from outside and help my country.

Anyways, we are not in the same shoes I guess. Pursue your data analysis dreams for both of us, fighting ✊

Interestly enough, not matter what people study, in the end they will do what they like to do, that is what I have heard from people whoare older and have more experience than I do.
If you like what you study and you actually feel passion for it, then it does not matter what others say or the opinion of others, actually.
I could easily tell you and anyone I encounter about what the best choices for a career are, but that would be the world being seen from my own perspective, not yours.

In the eyes of many, the best and most important people on society are engineers, because they keep things running and make possible our modern way of living, while others will disagree and say Medics/doctors are more important and more awesome because they keep people alive. It is all matter of perspective. In the end, all careers have their own importance, all comes down to what you passion is and what you are willing to do for many years in order to earn money.

I have seen people talking about how Artificial Inteligence could change the job market permanently in the future, though I believe that is a discussion to have in a different thread and on a different occasion.

So, if you had the opportunity to advise people about courses to choose In University, what would it be and why?

It depends on the country you live in. It can also depend on what you want to do. If you want to work in an international field, if you do not have any job prospects in your country of residence related to your major and if your major allows you to do international business, you can continue. This choice is directly related to where your field of study is located.

There are people who spend years just to get a graduation certificate or study in a department that is not enough to find a job. It is very important to decide which fields of work you will find in the country you live in and which fields of work you want to work in. Many people drop out of school and switch to other departments. In order not to waste time, it will be more beneficial to analyze the conditions well and at the same time choose the profession you want to do and focus on it.

If you believe that you will be successful, you should not care too much about what others say about your department.

There are also some people who believe that higher education can make them successful, I myself am not too sure about that, the statement is that no matter how high the education we get, if we ourselves don't pursue it then there will be no results. Also, with those who have degrees, I often find that they tend to be arrogant about having that title. In my opinion, degrees and diplomas are only a sign that we have studied, not a guarantee that we can be successful. Success is based on ourselves, whether we have a strong determination to achieve success or not. Moreover nowadays, there are rich people who have so much money they can afford an educational degree. So in my opinion, being successful doesn't just depend on degrees and diplomas.

because in my opinion the reality is different, when we study and take a certain major, sometimes after graduating from school we get a job that is not at all related to the major we chose in education. What you say is true, the key is in ourselves, if we can understand the work we get and are also diligent in carrying it out then that is a good thing, and not everyone can do this.

I wouldn’t downgrade any one’s course choice of study because I wouldn’t say any one is bad to be studied. Everybody either male or female has right to study whatever they want so if I’m to give anyone advice on what to study I’ll make known to the person how important the course is to either personal life , economics, the society and so on.

The reason is because for me I don’t pick any course of study as bad or not useful the most important thing is know the importance and disadvantages of the course so long as you’re comfortable with it go ahead and study it you’ll make a great living out of it so far you studied well and know what you’re doing

My personal opinion is that there is a need to study economics and not just a course that gives little understanding of economics. It should be a research report or study about the world economy from which people can learn about the economy of the whole world and how a country can prosper. Managing the economy in today's world is much more difficult because the entire world economy is currently booming. I think every man should have clear knowledge about the economy, because if he has clear knowledge about the economy then he can manage the economy very well in his family life.

So, I watched a video recently where the guest speaker said, that if he gets the opportunity to advise teens in high school he would tell them not to study economics, and it made me scared because I'm studying economics. So, it was like... ' Did I make the wrong choice or something? '. Moving further in the video, I realized that what he was saying and explaining had already been said by my economics lecturer before.

"Economics is a day-to-day practice and is an easy endeavor made difficult for study reasons", he usually said. Watching the video to the end, I asked myself, "If I had the opportunity to go back in time would I pick another course to study? " And the answer was ..." No". And if I have the opportunity to advise any high school student about courses to choose... I'd say "Economics". The more people learn about even basic economics, the better the economy of countries.

So, if you had the opportunity to advise people about courses to choose In University, what would it be and why?
I studied economics but if I could return back, I would study informational technologies because there is a very high competition among those who finish Business management and economics and because of this competition, salaries are very low. In overall, economics is a necessary, people should know how economy and money works in order to gain financial advantage and not struggle in their life but life doesn't work the way we study in universities. In universities, they don't talk much about shady business practices, what happens behind the scenes and how dark the business is.
University course about economics is only good to become a hired person, that's all about it.

I think in all ages, the masses have railled blames on the constituted Government for policy failures. It is this nature of argument that is anchored on leadership. This demonstrates that  the leadership has failed the public.  Again, among the courses in the university that could play justice to the study of leadership is Political science.
Therefore, I would ernestly advise someone seeking admission in to a university to study political science under the faculty of social sciences

Besides studying, those who talk about business can achieve success one day. You need to have capital or your mental knowledge.  But if you don't study or if you want to do business without studying then you will never be able to do it, I see that I study.  Nowadays marketing is good profit if you want or if you have idea if you can then you can definitely do something good.  But nowadays it is such a situation that people can never make anyone successful but if you study then study will never be unfair to you or your education will never be unfair to you.

As far as I am concerned economists cannot do anything other than develop some general information and knowledge about economics. The economy may be too tough to study. Economists may need to be comfortable working with data constraints such as not having enough information or not having a specific set of data at hand. In addition economists often have to predict the future which can be very vague and unpredictable.

i think that economists help the economy of a country, where they can help in various financial and banking sectors, and contribute their knowledge to the development of the country. however, the more economists in that country will not make the country's economy better, because again they only help contribute the economic knowledge they learn to the sectors in that country, the economic development of a country depends on the top level leaders in the country. the. because no matter how many economists there are in that country, if the policy makers in that country are stupid, then it's in vain.

You should really try to find a balance between something you find interesting and something that could give you a reasonably financially rewarding career. Money is not everything and you are more likely to burn out if you are not interested in the course, or long term the subject. You should also consider the amount of competition in the sector, because if you're doing a super easy course with few jobs available, then youl may end up finding the degree outcome to be worth much less than you paid to attain it. All these things are very hard to calculate when you're younger.

I would advice people to try and study something in technology

Time is evolving and so are technology each company nowadays is looking for an IT guy whether to fix something or to create something so i think the demand is there

You could be a computer engineer as well creating softwares or applications will be profitable and beneficial in today’s time

What you said is true but you should also know that economics is about calculation and calculation involves in every aspect of technology, technology is part of calculation, all you mentioned is part of economics, some people think that as a person that studied economics in school you must be part of the economy of a country or you will be stingy because it is assumed that people who studied economics knows the value of money but in real sense is not like that.

The digitalization if the world come with everything and economics is part of it, so it is a fact that economics as study is in line with the recent technology.

untill a developing nation likewise put her educational system in it right shape, I don't think going to the university in my country is a necessity.

What people actually need is basic education that prepares them for a particular field they will have to venture into and not another four to five years in the higher institution that ends up becoming unprofitable because you end up learning nothing during those number of years and after coming out of the university thier is no guarantee at all that you are going to be gainfully employed. The once that end up being employed are paid peanuts as though all the effort they had put in to study the course is worthless.
This course might looks useless in a less developed region or developing nations. I don't see much value in this course but there are countries where this course could be very useful and you can make a living from it. We need to study course that would give us an edge after we graduate from the university not studying courses like political science because to me, it has not much value in the society and there might be no job available for anyone studying such course. It is good if we have the intention to focus somewhere while studying and we don't have any serious plan to use the course for anything seriously or looking for a job.

The country is a holistic thing. That is as there is economy there is also management there is science there is society there is history etc. So all subjects are important for study. Now the question is if a person comes to me for advice on which subject to choose in university? In that case, my opinion would be of a different kind. A student should study that subject in which he has an interest love and passion. If he has interest and love for a subject it will be much easier for him to study that subject as he will quickly master and acquire that subject. So he will give something good in that regard.

In the end, this gap must be owned and this is like what is happening now in investing where we should never regret our decision. And also maybe we never thought Bitcoin would reach more than 51K before after the big correction last year at that time and now we have to move on. From this condition, don't make the same mistake and collect as many bitcoins from now on as possible and this is also an economic lesson for sure.

A career in tech is always a good choice from a financial standpoint. With a lot of things heading towards digitization, it's a great opportunity to learn about different tech stacks and see which path is suitable for you. I wanted to break into tech a decade before I got my degree. Where I'm at, there's good money, but you have to have years upon years of experience to make huge bucks. Whereas in the tech field, be good in one stack and a lot of companies will rush at you in a moment's notice. Of course, layoffs are pretty common too, but heck, you can market yourself as a freelancer and can still make that same money or even more as a consultant!
True, technology is an unending trend based on where the world is headed, so anyone from any field of life must have the know-how of technology, and if one can learn languages and stuff that are necessary for technological developments, they will be more in demand than their field of work.

However, there is one thing, technology keeps evolving, so things don't always stay the same, which might become troublesome for people who aren't mainly from a technological field because a person with a technological background might be able to adapt to the changes very easily while someone that has a different background will have difficulties accepting the changes and having their mind change according to it.
