I mean, that's really only true for compsci. While scientific and technological advances will indeed be made in STEM in general, they aren't that fast or significant enough to make what was learned unviable.
Not even though. The things I learned about in my bachelor's and master's didn't suddenly get mase obsolete.
I'd like to see the innovation that makes algorithm theory obsolete.
Fair. I was thinking more about changes in coding language usage, but I suppose that also depended on when you were attending university. There have been periods where things changed faster in compsci than other periods.
The basic algorithms and mathematics are still the same tho, maybe the implementations are going to be different on 5 years from today, but there's not going to be a revolution on mathematics in 5 years that makes the teaching of calculus useless.
