In the build-up to the #2025MatricResults, we take a moment to reflect on the decisions these young school leavers need to make in choosing their vocation and how they should approach learning in higher education. Our next guest has written an article that considers the importance of the sciences and humanities in building careers as well as society. He argues that while we need STEM graduates to overcome some of our scarce skills, we still need to train graduates who can perceive problems and devise solutions on how to fix them.
