  2. Computer Scientist

    • Educational Requirements: A bachelor's degree in computer science or a related field; many positions may require a master's degree.
    • High School Subjects: Advanced mathematics (such as calculus), computer science, and physics. Courses in programming and information technology can be especially beneficial.

  3. Nurse

    • Educational Requirements: An associate’s degree in nursing (ADN) or a bachelor’s degree in nursing (BSN); must also pass the NCLEX-RN exam to obtain a nursing license.
