如果你是一名正准备找工作的大学生或进修生，那么不妨考虑下面介绍的几个行业亮点，未来几年内，在这些行业中将出现许多新的工作机会和前景广阔的职业。
　　If you're gearing up for a job search now as an undergraduate or returning student, there are several bright spots where new jobs and promising career paths are expected to emerge in the next few years.

　　根据美国劳工统计局（Bureau of Labor Statistics）对2008年至2018年就业增长前景的预测，科技、医疗和教育仍将是热门职业。但是其他行业也将提供新的工作机会，甚至某些传统的行业也将推出一些复合型新职位。
　　Technology, health care and education will continue to be hot job sectors, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics' outlook for job growth between 2008 and 2018. But those and other fields will yield new opportunities, and even some tried-and-true fields will bring some new jobs that will combine a variety of skill sets.

　　美国大学与雇主协会（National Association of Colleges and Employers）的就业信息经理安德烈娅•孔茨（Andrea Konc）称，雇主们最需要的是金融学、工程学和计算机科学专业人才。但就业专家称，要找到最有发展前途的工作，求职者需要多方面发展，学习第二技能或将硬科学知识与软技能相结合，而这正是许多学生正在做的。“学生们根据未来就业市场需求进行准确定位，尤其是在专业领域内进行准确定位”，孔茨说。
　　The degrees employers say they'll most look for include finance, engineering and computer science, says Andrea Koncz, employment-information manager at the National Association of Colleges and Employers. But to land the jobs that will see some of the most growth, job seekers will need to branch out and pick up secondary skills or combine hard science study with softer skills, career experts say, which many students already are doing. 'Students are positioned well for future employment, particularly in specialized fields,' Ms. Koncz says.

　　就业专家称，在成长型行业中谋得一份工作的关键是，既要手握紧俏专业的xx，又要拥有新行业趋势所需的技能专长。例如，沟通专才必须精通社交媒体和随之产生的分析技术；护理专业的学生必须了解风险管理和电子病历；技术人员需要掌握网络营销、用户体验设计和其他网络相关技能的{zx1}发展。
　　Career experts say the key to securing jobs in growing fields will be coupling an in-demand degree with expertise in emerging trends. For example, communications pros will have to master social media and the analytics that come with it; nursing students will have to learn about risk management and electronic records; and techies will need to keep up with the latest in Web marketing, user-experience design and other Web-related skills.

　　科技业的新工作机会
　　Technology Twists

　　根据美国劳工统计局的预测，到2018年将创造出200多万个新的科技类工作机会。需求增长速度快于平均水平的职位包括计算机网络管理员、数据通信分析师和网络开发员。招聘人员预计，数据丢失防护、信息技术、网络安全和风险管理这些职位的需求也将表现出强劲增长。
　　More than two million new technology-related jobs are expected to be created by 2018, according to the BLS. Jobs that are expected to grow faster than average include computer-network administrators, data-communications analysts and Web developers. Recruiters anticipate that data-loss prevention, information technology, online security and risk management will also show strong growth.

　　要得到这些工作，拥有计算机科学学位和数据安全的工作知识是非常重要的。本科生学习的此类课程通常包括计算机科学、信息学和管理信息系统等常规科目。
　　A computer-science degree and a working knowledge of data security are critical to landing these jobs. Common areas of undergraduate study for these fields include some of the usual suspects, such as computer science, information science and management-information systems.

　　但这可能并不够，因为这些工作并不都是纯技术性的。IT研究公司Foote Partners的首席执行长戴维•富特（David Foote）建议现在的计算机科学专业学生在攻读本专业的同时学习市场营销、会计或金融。“以前，人们普遍认为只要掌握精深的书本知识就够了”，富特说。“但是企业现在需要的是拥有多种技能、能够自如地兼事市场营销或经营的人才。”
　　But those might not be enough. That's because not all of those jobs will be purely techie in nature. David Foote, chief executive officer of IT research firm Foote Partners, advises current computer-science students to couple their degrees with studies in marketing, accounting or finance. 'Before, people widely believed that all you needed to have were deep, nerdy skills,' Mr. Foote says. 'But companies are looking for people with multiple skill sets who can move fluidly with marketing or operations.'

　　社交媒体为新型工作机会的增长打开了一扇大门。富特说，当企业转而求助于Twitter、LinkedIn 和Facebook等网站推广其品牌、赢取新顾客甚至是发布工作机会时，它们需要雇用能熟练运用这些工具的人才。在多数情况下，这隶属于市场营销人员的职责，但可口可乐公司（Coca-Cola Co.）等大公司正在建立整支团队，专门负责社交媒体工作。
　　Social media has opened the door to the growth of new kinds of jobs. As companies turn to sites like Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook to promote their brands, capture new customers and even post job openings, they will need to hire people skilled in harnessing these tools, Mr. Foote says. In most cases, these duties will be folded into a marketing position, although large companies such as Coca-Cola Co. are creating entire teams devoted exclusively to social media.

　　类似地，美国劳工统计局还预测，到2018年公共关系职位的就业机会将增加24%。像互动创意总监这样的职位名称将反映出所需技能的双重性。
　　Similarly, employment for public-relations positions should increase 24% by 2018. Job titles-like interactive creative director-will reflect the duality of the required skill sets.

　　回到学校进修新技能
　　Back to School

　　学生们必须学习能促进第三方内容提供商与所在公司网络团队相互关系的策略。其他重要技能包括提高网络流量的搜索引擎优化技能和识别公司目标客户群的营销分析技能，Creative Group（一家位于加利福尼亚州的市场营销与广告职介机构）的执行总监唐娜•?法鲁希亚（Donna Farrugia）说。
　　Students will have to study strategy to maximize relationships between third-party content providers and their company's Web team. Other key skills will be search-engine optimization to maximize Web traffic and marketing analytics to decipher the company's target demographic, says Donna Farrugia, executive director of Creative Group, a marketing and advertising staffing agency in Menlo Park, Calif.

　　许多大学和社区学院都开设了以新兴行业为重点的认证课程。例如，加州大学洛杉矶分校（University of California at Los Angeles）继续教育学院就开设了信息设计认证课程。
　　Many universities and community colleges are offering certification programs focused on burgeoning sectors. For example, the University of California at Los Angeles's extension program offers a certificate in information design.

　　加州大学洛杉矶分校继续教育学院院长凯西•桑迪恩（Cathy Sandeen）说，就像其他学校的类似认证课程一样，该课程旨在让学生具备网站搜索优化的技能优势──这对希望增加用户流量的网络公司而言具有很大吸引力。
　　That, program, like similar certificate studies at other schools, aims to give students an edge in Web site search optimization-a major attraction for Web-based companies who want to boost user traffic, says Cathy Sandeen, dean of UCLA's extension program.

　　用户体验设计──一种基于网络受众视角的信息设计──是另一种新兴行业。从电脑游戏公司到电子商务网站等企业的体验专家和产品设计师都属于这类职位。
　　User-experience design-a sort of architecture for information that Web viewers see-is another emerging field. Jobs there include experience specialists and product designers at firms ranging from computer-game companies to e-commerce Web sites.

　　桑迪恩说，该校也将开设用户体验设计的认证课程，学费约为3,000美元至5,000美元。该课程的学制为1-2年（取决于学生的时间安排），课程内容将结合产品设计和消费者心理与行为。
　　Ms. Sandeen says the school will offer a certificate program for user-experience design as well, at a cost of about $3,000 to $5,000. The program will run one to two years, depending on a student's schedule, and will couple product design with consumer psychology and behavior.

　　“我们的学生（将）学习像人类学家一样思考，评估产品的使用方便程度”，她说。
　　'Our students [will] learn to think like anthropologists, evaluating how easy it is to utilize the products,' she says.

　　不难想见，绿色科技──包括太阳能、风能和绿色建筑──也是蓬勃发展的领域。例如，能规划设计高压电网的工程师和其他求职者相比就拥有很大优势，Sapphire Technologies公司（位于麻萨诸塞州的一家IT职介公司，是任仕达公司（Randstad）的分支机构）负责美国、拉美和加拿大地区招聘工作的格雷格•内特兰德（Greg Netland）说。
　　Not surprisingly, green technology, including solar and wind energy and green construction, are also booming areas. Engineers who can mastermind high-voltage electric grids, for example, will have a great advantage over other job applicants, says Greg Netland, who oversees recruiting for the U.S., Latin America and Canada for Sapphire Technologies, an IT staffing firm in Woburn, Mass. that is a division of Randstad.

　　“对雇主来说，全球范围内的可持续性将变得越来越重要”，内特兰德说。“这能削减成本，因此让这一领域的专家对雇主极具吸引力。”
　　'Global sustainability will become more important to employers,' Mr. Netland says. 'It cuts costs, making experts in the field highly attractive to employers.'

　　替代能源（包括风能和太阳能）系统的工作需要具备多种技能的人才，包括设计系统的工程师、评估公司现有能源需求的顾问和系统安装与维护人员。
　　Jobs in alternative-energy systems, including wind and solar energy, will require a variety of skills: engineers to design systems, consultants who will audit companies' existing energy needs, and those who will install and maintain the systems.

　　金融业的新工作机会
　　Financial Opportunities

　　Robert Half International公司的纽约/新泽西区总裁唐?费伊（Dawn Fay）说，尽管经济危机期间金融业的职位需求锐减，但招聘人员也预期合规领域将产生数以千计的新职位。
　　Despite the slashing of positions seen in the financial sector during the economic crisis, recruiters also expect thousands of new jobs to be created in the compliance field, says Dawn Fay, district New York/New Jersey president of Robert Half International.

　　费伊建议求职者考察过去一、两年中发生的违规行为，从中发现金融业的新工作机会。“这是充斥着庞氏骗局和银行危机的一年”，她说。“要有战略眼光，将你自己定位为能降低这些风险的人。”
　　Ms. Fay counsels job seekers to look at the misdeeds of the past year or two to identify where new jobs will bloom in the financial sector. 'It was a year of Ponzi schemes and banking meltdowns,' she says. 'Be strategic and position yourself as someone who can mitigate those risks.'

　　这让风险管理成为职位需求增长强劲的一门新专业。准备成为金融分析师的人还可以通过美国风险管理协会（Risk Management Association）或美国风险与保险管理学会（Risk and Insurance Management Society）等组织取得风险管理证书。
　　That makes risk management an emerging specialty with strong growth in jobs expected. Those on track to be financial analysts can get additional certification in risk management through organizations like the Risk Management Association or the Risk and Insurance Management Society.

　　“风险管理向来是金融企业中的支柱，但我相信它也将存在于每家财富500强企业之中”，职介公司万宝盛华公司（Manpower Inc）的董事长兼首席执行长杰夫•约雷斯（Jeff Joerres）说。
　　'Risk management was a mainstay in financial companies, but I believe it will be present in every Fortune 500 company,' says Jeff Joerres, chairman and chief executive officer at staffing firm Manpower Inc.

　　医疗业的新工作机会
　　Hospital Upgrades

　　根据美国劳工统计局的估计，医疗业的招聘需求将继续高涨，到2018年，将有400多万个新职位需求。对物理xx师和职业xx师的需求可能{zd0}。但Kaye Bassman International公司（总部位于得克萨斯州的一家高管猎头公司）的合伙人布拉德•埃利斯（Brad Ellis）说，对新型专业人才，尤其是病例管理师的需求也在不断涌现。
　　Health care is expected to continue to see a surge in hiring, with more than four million new openings estimated by 2018, according to the BLS. Hiring for physical and occupational therapists will likely be strongest. But new specialties are popping up, particularly in case management, says Brad Ellis, a partner with Kaye Bassman International, an executive-search firm based in Plano, Texas.

　　病例管理师的工作内容非常广泛，从管理执业医师与保险公司之间的信息沟通到降低医院面临的风险，几乎无所不包。
　　Case managers do everything from managing the flow of information between practitioner and insurance company to mitigating risk to the hospital.

　　“比如，如果你是一名持照护士，又从州卫生局取得了风险管理证书，那么这将让你极具竞争力”，埃利斯说。
　　'If you're a licensed nurse, for example, getting a certificate in risk management from the state board of health would make you extremely competitive,' Mr. Ellis says.

　　位于华盛顿的职业学院联盟（Career College Association）的总裁哈里斯•米勒（Harris Miller）称，为寻求降低医疗成本，信息技术也将变得越来越重要。护理信息学将一般护理学和电脑与信息学相结合，该专业的硕士生将用智能手机代替笔记板来管理病人数据。范德比尔特大学（Vanderbilt University）等学校开设了护理信息学远程教育学位课程，证书是通过位于马里兰州的美国护士认证中心（American Nurses Credentialing Center）颁发的。
　　Harris Miller, president of the Career College Association in Washington, D.C., says IT will be increasingly important in the quest to drive down health-care costs, too. Students specializing in nursing informatics, which combines general nursing with computer and information sciences, at the master's degree level will swap a clipboard for a smart phone to manage patient data. Schools like Vanderbilt University are offering nursing informatics degrees via distance learning, and certification is offered through American Nurses Credentialing Center, based in Silver Springs, Md.

　　米勒说，通过电脑记录方式提高查阅病历和信息的便利性是大势所趋，而这意味着机会。“这项工作需要能熟练应用护理信息硬件和软件的人才。”
　　The strong push toward making medical records and information more accessible through computerized record-keeping means opportunity, Mr. Miller says. 'This is going to require people who are skilled in the hardware and software of nursing informatics.'
