The U.S. Department of Labor predicts that employment for biochemists (a category that includes genetic scientists) will grow about as fast as the average for all occupations through 2028. Interest in genetic research has exploded in the past decade, with breakthrough discoveries bringing greater attention to the exciting possibilities of finding genetic causes and cures for diseases. This suggests that there will be strong opportunities for genetic scientists during the next decade.
