As a professional education consultant, recruiter, and subject-matter expert, I am often asked by both job market candidates and other academic aspirants such as students and researchers to offer my opinions on academic disciplines.
Due to the interdisciplinary nature of studies, pedagogy, educational technologies, and curriculum design, academicians, students, headhunters and employers often make technical mistakes, when they are hiring or starting a new degree.
Cross-fertilization of concepts, models, & theories, is taking place across a wide variety of disciplines, and hence, most of us have forgotten the epistemological roots, of different subjects.
Nowadays, interdisciplinary education is producing a jack of all trades.
I have been reminded by some followers that ->
Defence Studies & Strategic Studies
Military History & Military Archaeology
Military Sci & War studies
Economic History & History of Economic thought
Security Studies & Conflict Mgmt
Diplomacy & Int relations
ARE NOT THE SAME ;)
So choose your academic degree wisely!
Education is a lifetime investment.
Its pays only when you know how to translate your skills into the marketplace.
Hence, make the right move based on market knowledge seeking and talent resourcing trends.
yes, many pardons!
I didn't compare Library Science with Information Science, Electronics major in Physics with Electrical Engineering, Performing Arts with Non-Performing Arts, missed out on the Life science and physical science comparisons, and lastly didn't discuss sport sci
If you want to come up with a suitable job description, curriculum design or training delivery program, or even have specific headhunting requirements for special talents, do write to me via DM.
Byes.

It's brilliant if your standard fraud risk assessor aka auditor and the quantitative risk manager can use the #Benford#Law to identify, proactively measure and control fraud risk-related predicate financial crimes.
But, first, do the basic work, before leapfrogging.
Early Grey Tea, can be refreshing, but, it gives me a terrible headache.
I don't know why?
Must be the oil of bergamot orange extractions added to the tea? @TheCoffeeBean
Compared to Earl Grey, the Lady Grey Tea, which is the Russian Version of this condiment mixed with black tea, can bring on more complex flavours.
Tea Tasting is very much like Wine or Tobacco Tasting.
You require special training and skills.
It is a highly-priced niche profession.
Basel I, II, III: evolution of global banking regulation via @YouTube
It was interesting to watch this discussion.
Even the participants agreed to the fact that Basel Accords are a complete exercise in futility.
What might happen tomorrow is not known even to the best minds working in the area of financial bank risk management.
Being a risk management professional, I can very well understand how rogue traders can wreak havoc! the concept of having a Middle Office came into existence after the Baring fallout. Middle Office is supposed to check and re-check all transactions in real-time and at the close
Every socio-economic, political, legal, natural disaster, man-made disaster, or another process, which leads to a negative outcome must be recorded and taxonomized as an incident having material or near-miss risk characteristics, in the right category box in the risk register.
Modern #ERM & Traditional Risk Management are getting more and divided.
ERM is not just about Operational Loss Management and Materiality Assessment based on Assurance and Risk Review drove Internal Controls and Testing, but, it goes beyond that! @IASassociation@TheIIA@BIS_org
More and more #Analytics is being used in both Auditing and Risk management, to understand the organizational dynamics of commercial strategy and the vulnerabilities associated thereof.
Especially the design, inserting and removal of Internal Controls is an analytical exercise.
