Why you want to be Telecom engineer now?

I was talking with couple of young aspiring engineers on various career options. Our discussions were mainly around future of communication industry. I talked with them why I think Telecommunication will be an exciting career for them.

Here are 5 points why I think 2016 will offer them exciting career to Electronics & Computer Science Students

1. Firms of all sizes are using the cloud for storage, processing power and even software as a service markets. This shared infrastructure will create new career & business opportunities for people with high dreams. Huge data management will be key.
2.  People will select devises of their own choice and teleco network need to support this. Current network is still far behind  to support device and network agnostic behavior.  
3. Individuals will use a combination of cloud storage, SaaS, cloud media and remote desktop access to store, retrieve and consume content while on the go. This implies more work on information security.
4. Analytics on customer behavior will be key to run successful business.
5.  Creation of new technology which are not power hungry like today’s devises. 

All these above points  are going to change future communication industry and there are huge potentials for young people to contribute tomorrow.
