Editing Cracking the Voynich code 2022 (section)

== Relationship to possible career path ==
Whilst the project is fascinating as you'll learn about a specific high-profile mystery—and we do want you to have a lot of fun with it—the project does have a hard-core serious engineering side. It will familiarize you with techniques in information theory, probability, statistics, encryption, decryption, signal classification, and datamining. It will also improve your software skills. The new software tools you develop may lead to new IP in the areas of datamining, automatic text language identification, and also make you rich/famous. The types of jobs out there where these skills are useful are in computer security, comms, digital forensics, internet search companies, and language processing software companies. The types of industries that will need you are: the software industry, e-finance industry, e-security, IT industry, Google, telecoms industry, [http://www.asio.gov.au/ ASIO], [http://www.asis.gov.au/ ASIS], defence industry (e.g. [http://www.dsd.gov.au/ DSD]), etc. So go ahead and have fun with this, but keep your eye on the bigger engineering picture and try to build up an appreciation of why these techniques are useful to our industry. Now go crack the Voynich...this message will self-destruct in five seconds :-)
