A course worth studying ?

[Bitco55]

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?

Every person has their own point of view, In yours, Economics is good and in mine, it is very good and we should not avoid it. By the way, I am not studying Economics, so I don't know what do you guys are reading in there, talking about difficult, every subject is difficult if we have no interest in it considering you know everything. The funny thing is, I was not an economic dude, which means, I didn't give any time to know about economies, and the factors causing problems and, etc. etc.,

But when I started to engage in the economic section of this forum, I got to know a lot, I learn new things, and still learning, but the pace of learning new things keeps getting slow nowadays, I don't know the exact reasons, maybe I know enough (but that's not a chance hehe).

Talking about advice to people about courses, I will simply say do what you want to, because, on your choice, you have to stick to it and have to find ways to make work out of it. I like programming before coming into computer sciences, but now I don't like it hehe. So, it all depends on time, and the situations one is going through.

Well just as you have said Economic is not a bad course to study I gist right now in many countries Economic is one of the social courses that deal with many jobs like the engineering, and the business man and women, also has help a lot of people to make a right decision in their businesses and in additional help in growth of product management services in the country’s financial sector.
So for my advice it a matter of choice when choosing course of study….

No course is bad and I can't advice anyone not to study a course of their choice. Going for a course should be based on passion and interest,  it shouldn't be because of to become rich after graduation. When people choose course of study because of the interest they have for it they perform very excellent in their grade throughout their time in school but when a course is selected because of how people talk good about the course,  if their is no interest of studying the course one hardly flow with the course because their is no interest.

It is important people go after what they can do better than to go after what they will struggle to learn thinking it will be the best decision for the future. I don't see economics not be a good course,  and it is a well recognised discipline that every company,  business will need an economist for better management.

[Lukmanfirdaus1]

keep focusing on what you are doing and do it, if you like economics just do it, don't listen to the advice of random people on the internet, there is too much misdirection in today's era, not everything you watch can be taken from wisdom. Economics is an important science so don't be inferior because of that. I know several great economists who make state policies, because of their policies the country can achieve 5% economic growth in a year.

[Barikui1]

I don't really think economy is a bad course to study in school, and I would have loved to also watch that video you are talking about to know their exact reason for it, but to me everything that have advantage will also have disadvantage, so the disadvantage part of it shouldn't stop us from doing things or going for course we have passion for, because when as an individual you are studying or doing things you don't have passion for, you will not be able to give out your full potential in that field of study, so my candid advice to the op is that if it's what you love doing, then you made the right decision, because we only die once, so we should live life by doing things we love.

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

Don't let someone reorientate you and change your mind towards the right thing you're already achieving all because they couldn't make something worthwhile out of it in their own time doesn't mean others like you could be successful in your own time, there's no how you could make a justification to illiteracy no matter how, it's not what we can compare than when we are educated, it will shows in everything we do.

[electronicash]

economics and politics go together though. the only way the economy of a country will work well is if the politicians are doing their work well. a country with politicians that go unpunished despite the pieces of evidence of corruption and crime, also has the worse economy.

but yes iff there is something that i should be passionate about, it should be economics especially now that i have learned its money that makes the world go crazy.

You will advise people to study something relating to technology and all of that; that area is a driving area in development, but the question is, will that person be able to understand that technological study?
 
I believe whatever one needs to study today, he or she needs to have background knowledge of that and the desire to be in that field, not just a decision that someone else's can make for the other; it's a lifelong career, and the person needs to think carefully about whether they will do well in that field or not.
 
Before I can make a course or career recommendation for anyone, I will first of all study the person and examine their likes and dislikes of what they crave. Then, we can know which area they can do well in, but they can still add other things as skills they can just learn aside from studying it as a field.

I think choosing a major or course in university should depend on your desired career path after graduation. If you prioritize immediate job opportunities, research job demand projections for the next 3-4 years. Engineering offers good prospects, as my friends found work quickly. However, if remote work interests you, consider technology-related majors. Remember, university education goes beyond just technical skills (hard skills). Developing "soft skills" like networking and teamwork is equally crucial, as many curriculums haven't significantly changed in a decade.

In deciding to choose a college major, the very important thing is that we pay attention to what field we are interested in working in after we finish our education and never choose a major that most people only follow and after we have spent a while we feel bored and don't finish college then this will very disadvantaged in terms of costs and also the time we have.

If we see friends who have finished college and immediately got jobs quickly, that is the reason for us choosing a college major. I don't think we can necessarily do what other people do, so it is very important to be able to follow what we want and not let other people do it. set the desires we have and we will not be able to follow.

Studying economics is not inherently bad, but as a man, I believe you should avoid it and instead enrol in a course that will allow you to set your own goals without waiting for government intervention. While studying economics does have benefits, it is especially beneficial for women, as you mentioned. I have discovered a lot of previously unknown information in the economics section of the forum, as well as a lot of information about how things work well in life, as that is what economics talks about most.

The only thing I have to say is that before taking any courses, make sure you study a course that is related to manual labour or work that you can still survive without government. Some people will have an idea of what they want to become in the future, but as soon as you give them advice, they will change their mind, and when they go to study the course, they won't understand. For example, you may want to study computer science, but some people won't like it. That's just the way life is.

[Sim_card]

I wouldn't advise anyone on the course that he is to study,this is because anyone has their own choice of courses which they have passion for and want to learn and become what they have the zeal to be. You should also consider the area of field that the person is good at, so that you don't end up encouraging him to study a course that he cannot cope with, and fall out along the line. It is means you have mislead that person. We all have our likes, and it doesn't mean that because you like economics, the other person will like it.

Different curricular and courses offer this kind of subject but this could be used for enlightenment for the people about the current situation of the world, or even just in the community so they can take action with it, those people who don't know what happening with the economy are easy to manipulate with those words and affirmations of the people running in the government giving a pleasing promises but once they get into the position they don't know you again. But those people who know what's happening in the surroundings will surely take a move and raise up who deserves the position. If you can see only few general subject offering related to economics, taxes, and investment which is i guess is a must to learn.

[Gozie51]

These days people don't rely on what they have studied for financial success but they acquire more skills in life and that is what is needed to succeed just like we say to have diversified means of resources is better than having a single source of income. People these days don't rely on just one skill so having economies as a study just gives you the economic knowledge base and you can study any discipline in higher level in masters. There are people who studied second degree after the first degree in a separate discipline.

From one angle, I also think that economics is very important in our lives. In fact, economics is also a provision for us from young to old in building our finances. However, economics alone is not enough because we also need other knowledge in the form of skills and other insights related to life and society. But in my country, there are already too many economics graduates. But here there is a shortage in the medical field. So in the conditions of my country, I would prefer people to study medical science, because medical is just as important in life. economics can be studied self-taught because many economic books are also sold freely and easily understood if we are diligent in reading. But medical science requires guidance and practice supervised by a medical expert itself. So it is difficult to learn if only based on reading. Because to practice it also requires permission. And health experts are also the most important thing that is currently more needed by society.

I will advise people to choose a course in which they have an interest. No field is irrelevant, it will take hard work to be outstanding in the area. Many people are successful as economists and more people will still do well in that field. But I will always tell students to integrate technology with their field of study. An economist who is proficient in the use of artificial intelligence tools to engage in his job will do well. I also advise young people not to depend on their certificates, there is a need to learn another skill that could sustain them if there are no employment opportunities.

I wouldn't advise anyone on the course that he is to study,this is because anyone has their own choice of courses which they have passion for and want to learn and become what they have the zeal to be. You should also consider the area of field that the person is good at, so that you don't end up encouraging him to study a course that he cannot cope with, and fall out along the line. It is means you have mislead that person. We all have our likes, and it doesn't mean that because you like economics, the other person will like it.

You should not force people to choose a course but it is not wrong to give advise. You might help to guide young students about a course of study by exposing them to the rudiments of the field as well as the career path. But they should be allowed to make the decision of choosing his preferred choice.

It would be anything but economics. I dont like it so its my personal view point. But i still will suggest anyone and everyone to go for Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, Cloud Computing, Astronomy but economics, that what i ran away from. So its not in the list of my suggestions.

[tabas]

Every course has its own beauty on its form. If economics is the one you've decided to pursue, you have to be good at it and you'd definitely be happy going through the path of it if ever you'll continue to your career that's related to economics. Honestly, it's connected to everything that has money and that's the same as with finance courses. Right now, people flock to in demand courses because we're all filling the demand that we're seeing. So, if I'd be going to another course then I'd probably pursue having the degree and course of linguistics. I'd see communication as essential and even with the emergence of AIs, it's still different having automated translators. It's more of the connection that you'd get to know with other people of different languages, natives and races. And going depth with different cultures, that's something that amazes me.
