The Age of Data Analytics
Professions focused on data analysis have emerged as the most promising in the latest rankings The Future of Jobs, from the World Economic Forum. According to the 2023 survey, two of the positions that grew the most were: AI Specialists (1st position) and Data Scientists (6th position). According to SAS Academic Programs Manager, Deborah Vasconcellos, the increase in these opportunities is due to the change in companies' awareness. “In recent years, we have noticed that companies have increasingly valued the use of data to assist in decision-making,” she explains. “The heated demand brings great career opportunities for those who qualify,” she continues.
To change this scenario, the SAS event is a tool to offer members of the academic community free knowledge about the application of AI and analytics to solve complex problems in academic research and companies. “In addition to all the technical content, our Academic Week is an opportunity for networking and professional growth and aims to enhance the projects of those who wish to pursue a career in data analysis,” he concludes.
