Data on the critical and distinctive skills necessary for those working in the Industrial, Physical Pharmacy, & Cosmetic Sciences field from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Industrial, Physical Pharmacy, & Cosmetic Sciences majors need many skills, but most especially Monitoring. The revealed comparative advantage (RCA) shows that Industrial, Physical Pharmacy, & Cosmetic Sciences majors need more than the average amount of Repairing, Equipment Maintenance, Equipment Selection, Troubleshooting, Operation and Control, Management of Material Resources, Management of Financial Resources, Operation Monitoring, Quality Control Analysis, Management of Personnel Resources, Monitoring, Coordination, Systems Evaluation, Time Management, Systems Analysis, Instructing, Judgment and Decision Making, Complex Problem Solving, Mathematics, Speaking, Critical Thinking, Social Perceptiveness, Reading Comprehension, Science, Persuasion, Learning Strategies, Active Listening, Negotiation, Active Learning, Writing, Operations Analysis, Programming, Service Orientation, Technology Design, and Installation.
These two visualizations, one a radial chart and one a bar chart, show the same information, a rating of how necessary the following skills are for Industrial, Physical Pharmacy, & Cosmetic Sciences majors. Toggle between "value" and "RCA" to see the absolute rating of that skill (value) and the revealed comparative advantage (RCA), or how much greater or lesser that skill's rating is than the average. The longer the bar or the closer the line comes to the circumference of the circle, the more important that skill is. The importance of Repairing is very distinctive for majors, but the Monitoring, Reading Comprehension, Speaking, Critical Thinking, Management of Personnel Resources, Active Listening, Coordination, Judgment and Decision Making, Complex Problem Solving, Time Management, Operation Monitoring, Social Perceptiveness, Writing, Systems Analysis, Systems Evaluation, Instructing, Management of Financial Resources, Management of Material Resources, Active Learning, Quality Control Analysis, Mathematics, Persuasion, Learning Strategies, Operation and Control, Troubleshooting, Negotiation, Service Orientation, Equipment Maintenance, Science, Repairing, Operations Analysis, Equipment Selection, Programming, Technology Design, and Installation are the three most important skills for people in the field.
