People always talk about how not going to the university does not necessarily mean that things are over. But going to school or university still has some benefits. But what college programs end up becoming most profitable these days? Some may say medicine. I do not think so. It is expensive to become a doctor and you might just end up paying your debts a few years after you graduated.

I say information technology or Computer Science. Very in demand and if we look at the world now, we are in the digital era and they are the ones needed the most. Engineering as well is profitable and always in demand wherever you are. Obviously you should pick a program where you excel at and you will be happy at but a factor of choosing a degree to study is how rich it can make you. I guess I am talking about the degrees with biggest ROIs these days.

What else are profitable programs?

Law degree in my opinion is a good degree to have, you can easily get big money if you do good enough.
As for computer science, haven't you heard tech winter? so many people getting lay off, the big company aren't hiring because they already finished building things.

If you specialized in AI however, you might land 300-500k a year job. It's just depends on what skills the market demands.
