Engineers' Day: Here are the Top 4 In-Demand Engineering skills

Indian companies have placed a higher premium on agility, culture, and purpose-driven leadership in their workforces. Organizations have been pushed to invest in digital infrastructure due to the digital transformation trend and the pandemic wave. As a result, digital skills are now at the top of firms' employment priorities. Here are the top four digital skillsets on Engineers' Day that engineers require to be employable:

Artificial Intelligence (AI) - AI is more than just a technological advancement. It's a journey that a company takes to improve its agility, cost-efficiency, and productivity. However, if personnel aren't adequately trained to use the technology, the installation may fail, resulting in financial losses. Enterprises are aware of this and are looking for new talent with a basic understanding of AI and its underlying technologies to join the system.

Software Development and Programming- Programming is at the heart of any technological product. Java, Python, and other programming languages are standard. Engineers must have a thorough understanding of these coding languages because they will have to design software for the web or mobile devices at some point.

Systematic and Analytical Reasoning- Engineers must build and improve their problem-solving skills through systematic and analytical thinking to succeed in today's digitally-driven business sector. Systemic thinking, unlike analytical thinking, requires multiple skill sets to establish a holistic view of a system and explain its behaviour. On the contrary, analytical thinking is used to break down a system into simpler parts in order to identify the pieces and examine how they work together.

Machine learning – Machine learning is a subset of artificial intelligence. It deals with sending data into machines to decode patterns and learn how to automate processes and systems. Because this technology is concerned with data and its interpretation, engineering students familiar with statistics and probability are given priority.

Fresh grads must keep up with the rapid evolution and transformation of today's workplace to flourish. They must stay up with the newest business trends and seek opportunities to get fundamental skillet knowledge that will enable them to be employable and future-ready.
