Job University Team: Crescent By: Deni Saidoulaev(Belgium, University of Antwerp) (team leader) Ting-Yi Wang (Taiwan, University of Leipzig)
A direct employment In 2022, when you wake up, it is school time and work time at the same time because companies are cooperating universities around the world that gives you a chance to learn while experiencing the real working environment. This is not an internship but a studying trip where you can apply right away what you are learning.
Trends - Automated manufacturing: dominance of knowledge-based economy. - IT and (technical) engineering will play a more pivotal role. - Decentralization: higher mobility will not require centralization of the job market. - Higher possibility of working from home, flexible hours and creative job tasks. - Future employees will be more flexible and chosen based on various criteria, not just purely based on education or experiences. Companies will be looking for potentials and passion. - More communication beyond the borders (social media) will reduce job mobility barriers.
Work/life - Recruiting: focus on the fit between the employee and the organizational culture. Creating greater degree of self-fulfillment and enjoyment. - Less distinction between work and life. - More bonding with colleagues, not just business. - Your life is not shared between private and job, they are combined together. Going to work becomes an enjoyment of self-fulfillment and achievement. - Creativity is highly valued in the company, each of the employee has an opportunity to present his/her own creative idea regarding to work every month.
Day at work I wake up at 8 a.m., right when my body had enough sleep and I can get ready to work. My working hour is rather flexible, we do not need to be there at a certain time, as long as we finish our daily task, we can show up whenever we like to. But I need to be there today before the video conference. My transportation to work is fully charged and ready to go: a two-seated electric city-car. Automated driving mode gives me time to prepare for the day. After arriving at work I get ready for a video conference with our Shanghai-office concerning a consultancy project for a multinational company with offices in Europe and Asia. Final report will require minor adjustments, which I will finish in the evening at home.
Day at work In the afternoon I have a training in the following course: Doing Business in Africa. The region has experienced highest GDP growth numbers and the demand for services is soaring. The class is given online by an external mentor and attended by my colleagues from various regions. I and my colleagues will be responsible for our new office in Nairobi. In the evening I finish my on-going project and presentation the next morning goes as planned and is a success. The rest of the day I'm free and I use that time to do sports. I spend my evening with my most important "project" - my family.
Education Trends - Free education for all: through Massive Online Open Courses sponsored by universities around the world. - Students will then be available to choose a course online (of another university) which they find interesting/useful - Better fit between education and work, no more gap or probation, newly graduates will fit right away in the work environment. - No more university ranking, all the top universities around the world will open their doors for students of all age who are eager to learn.
Day at university Class starts with a debate form where the professor is no longer the center of the course, students are required to prepare in advance at home and come to the class to have a debate with professor. The aim is to prepare students with a critical thinking and form their individual opinion. Participation can be both online or in person. The assignment will not be involved any more paper writing but more field work. Students are encourage to do an internship during the semester any time they want and as long as they wish. School has a fund to sponsor student's internship and fieldwork. No more master thesis or doctor's thesis writing to obtain a degree. Students are encouraged to accomplish a mission with an enterprise or an organization of their choice.
Conclusion - Fit between education and work - Greater freedom for students in choosing their curriculum - Online education - lifelong learning - The world becomes more like a village where communication is faster and easier.
