As of 2020, an emerging field is any 21st-century new technology: inter alia, VR and AR, quantum computing, urban informatics, biometrics. It usually leads to new higher-paid professions like drone operators/pilots, urban technologists, and AR/VR developers.
Professors: "urban informatics is a 21st-century emerging field, computer science is a 20th-century relatively new field, civil engineering is a 19th century old field, and architecture is an ancient field. According to NYU and other stats, urban informatics grads earn an average base salary of $95,000 USD, beating that of architecture (M. Arch, Ivy League - in the interest of fairness) by $39,150 USD, engineering (including civil) by about $15,500 USD, and computer science by $8,500 USD"

Students: "old STEM professions suck"
