With the introduction of the New Education Policy in the country, many changes can be witnessed in school education. This has also brought a few changes in the job sector. Amid this, students preparing for higher education after Class 12 are already trying to determine their future course of action regarding their college degrees and jobs. Before you apply, you need to note that a few courses may no longer have any scope in the future.
As a child, you must have heard from your parents how there were degrees in their times that were quite popular but may have gone obsolete now. It might be because the jobs are such that the education has to be relevant to the job sector. If you do not want to enroll in a course that does not have a bright future, check out courses to steer clear of, which will result in zero growth in your career and no job prospects later.

Focus on upskilling yourself. Considering the current education pattern and job trends, it is essential to have relevant skills. If you don’t have the required skills, you might find yourself not finding suitable jobs. Therefore, before enrolling in a college, prioritize your skills and passion instead of going with what is trendy.
Also, make sure to check out the job prospects in your country before choosing a career. A few specialized degrees offer a great career and even money, but degree-related jobs are much more in demand in foreign countries. It is also essential to check that the degree you want to pursue will be relevant a decade later. While e generic courses like BA, B.Com, MBA, and B.Tech are safe, you can also check the scope of courses related to AI, software development, and others.
