My Major Lifespan

until AI starts shrinking hiring of this major’s graduates

AI absorbs entry-level work such as setting up analyses, design calculations, and test reports, but airworthiness certification sign-offs and pre-flight approvals are human responsibilities, so the verification bottleneck slows adoption, and the KF-21 fighter program and defense exports prop up hiring. Graduates who go into mechanical design feel it sooner.

Major lifespan is the time left until AI is expected to start shrinking hiring of this major’s graduates. It doesn’t mean the major will disappear or that everyone will lose their job.
