The purpose of this report is to highlight examples of the kinds of jobs, careers and professions that could result from advances in science and technology in the period from 2010 to 2030. The report was commissioned as part of the Science: [So what? So everything] campaign which aims to promote public interest in science and engineering and highlight their importance to our future. The specific objectives were to:
- sample of key advances in science and technology that are anticipated in the period from 2010 to 2030
- Develop a timeline indicating the timeframes in which these developments might come to maturity
- Identify a long list of highlighting current jobs that could become more prominent over the next two decades as a result of these advances
- Develop more detailed profiles of a representative sample of twenty jobs highlighting what a day in the life of these professions might involve.
- Invite a global audience of future thinkers to assess the value, impact and attractiveness of these twenty roles using an online survey.
