Looking at all these features, it is very likely that one of the popular professions of the future will be mobile application and game development.

Data Security Expertise

The internet is now a technology that is involved in every aspect of our lives. Because giant conglomerates, world-famous companies and millions of people do almost all their work over the internet or with the help of the internet. However, internet usage is quite common not only in workplaces but also at home. For this reason, security is very important, especially in the use of the internet at home. Of course, the concept of security does not only mean that computers get viruses. Especially protecting children under a certain age from all kinds of dangers that can be encountered on the internet is also included in this concept. For this reason, it is inevitable that one of the most important professions of the future will be a data security specialist.

Climate Engineering

Although we are in February; the weather is well above normal temperatures. Some trees that are normally expected to blossom in spring are already in bloom.      Heavy rains that fall for a short time negatively affect life. Both snow and rain have started with a delay. All these are some of the unusual natural phenomena that humanity is not used to. Of course, the most important causes of these phenomena are climate change and global warming. But climate engineers are the ones who will analyze and solve these problems and their causes. Therefore, it is highly likely that climate engineering will be in great need not only today but also in the future.
