Data scientists choose and build appropriate algorithms and models to analyze data better and uncover insights from it. For example, Netflix’s use of viewership data to give better movie recommendations, and Facebook’s use of past interactions to give more targeted ads to users, are all examples of data being put to use to gain a deeper level of understanding. In this way, Data scientists are like detectives, finding patterns out of data to help businesses make smarter decisions. Big Data is also a similar field but it involves dealing with huge amounts of data that cannot be processed by traditional tools like Excel. Professionals in these fields work with numbers, data and statistical tools all day, so it is perfect for those with a love for numbers.

“What can my child do when she grows up if she is good at calculation?”. We all know that Math is important and is applicable to nearly every industry today, from science and technology to business, retail, healthcare, and more.
There are several Math-related career options available to students, but not all students are aware of the different routes they can take to establish a successful career. In the book, The Path To Purpose, Stanford professor William Damon argues that the root cause of our children’s growing anxiety is an endless series of short-term goals. They are expected to perform well on a nonstop string of exams and deadlines that seem to have no relationship with the real world. But we can fix that, Damon argues, by helping our students find a larger sense of purpose, a way to make sense of their lives – and one way to do this is to help children develop a sense of their futures.
In its 2017 U.S Emerging Jobs report, LinkedIn ranked Machine Learning Engineers, Data Scientists, and Big Data Engineers among the top emerging jobs. In this article, we discuss some in-demand and exciting career options that will allow your child to spend time with numbers and earn well at the same time.
