My Major Lifespan

until AI starts shrinking hiring of this major’s graduates
Mar 24, 2033 · 2371 days left

AI is taking over entry-level work such as energy yield modeling, permit paperwork, and energy audit reports, so hiring for renewable energy development and management roles may shrink first. But staffing quotas at state-run power utilities, responsibility for the grid, hands-on work on battery lines, and rising electricity demand prop up hiring.

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.
