In the list of occupations, the first role highlighted by MOHRE was that of scientists. Their area of work can vary widely, from healthcare to energy research, or even taking part in the space programme.

Artificial Intelligence Engineer

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is in use across the UAE, in land and air traffic control systems, government departments, healthcare and education. The UAE has an AI strategy and recently opened the Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence, which will produce AI engineers.

AI is becoming the key for large private and government organisations to understand consumer sentiments and make decisions. It is a promising career.

A graduation in computer science or information management would be necessary for this position, and the candidate may also be required to have previous experience in a data-centric or analytical business.

Initiatives have been launched to reshape the skills base of workers here, including an artificial intelligence university, digital governance, autonomous vehicle strategies and space exploration.

A growing number of businesses are getting engaged to various data tools and artificial intelligence, and they are producing products and platforms that make use of algorithms that are based on metadata analytics and machine learning. In order to be qualified for the majority of these positions, you would need some form of quantitative and analytical background, as well as the ability to evaluate and acquire both organized and unstructured data.
