Poitier, what's your positive contribution to this thread? Merely that Africa needs more fresh faces with Agricultural Engineering degrees? In fact, lots of Agricultural Engineers have gone to Africa - I know some of them. Has their work been effective? Why or why not? Do you know which factors make some of them effective and which factors make some of them useless or even counterproductive? What difference would one more person with an Agricultural Engineering degree make if that's all they're bringing to the table?
1. Tell me what I should read then, as I've already asked you once before.
2. Tell us what your personal experience is which allows you to evaluate these things you're reading and be able to tell which is accurate and which is bullshyt. Have you EVER done work like what we're talking about, anywhere? Do you know people who are, and how familiar are you with the efficacy of their work?
Then enlighten me.

Its called answering the OP.
I go off the voices of 100s of Africans on the continent. I actually do grassroots campaigns in Atlanta.
I post African centered publications and twitter users all the time but unfortunately for you the search function isn't working at the moment. A simple google search on Nigeria and their fuel crisis, or South Africa and its educational reform movements, or Ethiopia land reform should all give you a better picture than what you've been posting in this thread.
Programming languages. HTML, JavaScript, CSS, SQL, Perl, Java, Python etc. HUGE growth coming in these fields over the next 10 years and it's not even close to enough people for that work load so plenty of opportunities for brehs who have the stomach for it.
You know what. I think we should really start strollin into Africa and taking over. Our land just as much as theres especially places like Ghana who sold us in the first place.

We gotta get our shyt together here first before we collectively think about "taking over" anything fam
Not really. Those who already have their shyt together can group and invest right now in a host of areas. For real we can't look at us as a whole but as those who build and others who we hope to follow.We gotta get our shyt together here first before we collectively think about "taking over" anything fam
Dudes can't even take over their house and think they will stroll into a country and "take over"We gotta get our shyt together here first before we collectively think about "taking over" anything fam
Machine Learning is the new wave, all this stuff ties in together. The issue with that in Africa is Africa is like 30-50 yrs from this being relevant there, Africa right now is decades behind, so infrastructure should be the focus, but once those things are in tact, then the Continent could be brought up to speed rather quickly.I've got an offer to study Data Science for my masers but I'm seriously considering studying Smart Cities and Urban Analytics.
Agreed, the internet of things too.
Yup, Cloud Computing can also ease the load on having to worry about a ton of Data Centers and such. If anything this is the perfect time for Africa to catch up to the technological advancements out now since the focus is now on Being Lean, Agile, and Managed Services, African Nations/Businesses dont have to worry about the massive overhead that comes with technology that other nations had to worry about from the 70s till the early 2000s.
This is the prime time to make stuff happen, but once again Africa as a whole lacks very basic things from an infrastructure standpoint that can't be ignored.

only 10% of degrees earned in Africa are in STEM. So any STEM degree would make you more useful and marketable.
More STEM degrees means we wouldn't have to outsource so much of the technical areas of infrastructure, and we'd be able to grow into a knowledge economy.
