Engineers face 19% unemployment rate, syndicate urges AI focus
The Jordanian Engineers Association issued recommendations to Tawjihi students and those about to choose their university majors, coinciding with the announcement of the general secondary school results, to guide them towards future fields such as artificial intelligence and data science, rather than traditional saturated engineering disciplines facing an unemployment rate of 19%. The study indicated that the job market is focusing on specialties like environmental engineering, renewable energy, and mechatronics engineering, with increasing demand for digital skills and sustainability. The association recommended aligning academic programs with market needs, reducing admission to saturated fields, and enhancing practical training and partnerships with the industrial sector to improve the readiness of engineers and meet future market demands.
