Why Data Industry Dominates Job Market until 2030

Why Data Industry Dominates Job Market until 2030 17:25:09

In today’s data-driven economy, information is more than just a resource – it’s the foundation for strategic decisions, innovation, and long-term growth. As industries across the globe embrace digital transformation, the demand for professionals with expertise in data science and business analytics is growing exponentially. 

The Rise of Data as the Foundation of Strategic Decision-Making 

According to the Future of Jobs 2025 report by the World Economic Forum (WEF), Big Data Specialists are forecasted to be the fastest-growing profession globally by 2030. Roles such as Data Analysts and Data Scientists are also among the top 10 most in-demand jobs in the next decade — a trend that reflects both in developed economies and emerging digital hubs like Vietnam. 

Furthermore, WEF recognises Big Data as one of the fastest-growing and most critical skills across all sectors – from finance to logistics, healthcare to retail. As a result, companies are rapidly expanding teams in roles like: 

  • Business Intelligence Specialists 
  • Machine Learning Engineers 
  • Data Strategists 

A study by McKinsey revealed that companies that apply data effectively in business decision-making can achieve up to 6% higher annual profit growth, reduce risks, and strengthen their competitive edge. 

Data is now considered the strategic compass behind business analysis – guiding decision-makers through understanding customer behaviour, anticipating market trends, improving efficiency, and identifying new growth opportunities. 

Explosive Demand Meets a Talent Gap in the Data Market 

As the role of data continues to grow, so does the demand for high-quality talent. Today’s job market spans not only tech giants and international banks but also fast-scaling startups and medical innovators – all investing heavily in data capabilities to gain a market advantage. 

Vietnam is no exception. The country is witnessing rising demand for skilled data professionals – and BUV is proud to be at the forefront of preparing students for this future. 

 

The rise of data has created an unprecedented demand for high-quality talent.   

 International-Standard Data Science Education, Delivered in Vietnam 

Among the top programmes addressing this market demand is the Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Data Science and Business Analytics at British University Vietnam (BUV). 

The degree is awarded by the University of London (UoL) and academically developed by the prestigious London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), ranked 4th in the UK and 6th globally in social sciences. 

BUV is the only official international teaching partner of the University of London in Vietnam, and delivers LSE’s rigorous curriculum with academic excellence at the heart of the experience. 

BUV has recently been awarded as “International Partner” of the University of London.   

LSE’s involvement in programme development ensures that students benefit from a globally respected curriculum, led by LSE’s renowned expertise and research excellence. Students also gain access to a global academic community of over 15,000 learners pursuing UoL degrees across more than 150 countries. 

BUV: A World-Class Learning Environment in Vietnam 

In addition to LSE’s curriculum, BUV offers students an international learning experience within its QS 5-star rated campus, certified by Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) and accredited by the UK’s Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) – a mark of academic and institutional excellence in higher education. 

“Our programme was created to meet the accelerating global demand for data specialists,” shared Dr. Mark Wheaton, Acting Dean at BUV.  “Through our partnership with LSE, we deliver a future-ready education – one that blends theory, technology, and real-world practice to prepare our graduates for impactful careers worldwide.” 

Preparing Students for Global Employability 

Students in the Data Science and Business Analytics programme are trained in a range of high-demand skills, including: 

  • Data modelling and interpretation 
  • Predictive analytics and machine learning 
  • Statistical programming and visualisation tools 
  • Business strategy through data-driven insights 

Classes are complemented by hands-on projects, expert guest lectures, case competitions, and internships – ensuring that graduates are both job-ready and academically prepared for further study. 

BUV’s commitment to employability is evident: over 90% of graduates secure employment or progress to postgraduate education within three months of graduation.
