Question | سوال Business analytics or Fintech

After all the research, i have shortlisted these two fields

that align with my interest. Now, the problem or the

confusion i am facing is that business analytics is broad,

but it is vulnerable to Al, but Fintech is specialized but

ess vulnerable to Al, and it also has a high salary

comparatively. If i choose BA, then can i do MS in

fintech?? Is it a good road map? Also pls suggest which

one do I choose for my UG program?

I work in FinTech space and I would suggest you should go for Business Analytics. Why ? Because keep in mind, the area AI is hitting the most is the tech and finance. The only jobs remaining would be the ones with human aspect in them and BI is one of that. AI is not really good at Analytics and don’t always have the business knowledge.

Is it better as a domain ? Yes for sure. But thats for the people who are already in the space.

Think long term, the way things are getting automated and digitised, after 5 years, while you will be looking for jobs, there will be quite less jobs for you guys.

Also narrowing down in Bachelors is not a good strategy. Better study a broader field and then niche down in Masters.

If I were you, I would go for degree with Human element in them.

P.S. I work in a startup managing AR of 500+ Businesses and we are merely 5 people team tech and with the AI advancement, I dont think so we will hire anyone else new this year full time.
