The study aims to investigate the necessary skills for university students in light of the Kingdom's Vision 2030 and the requirements of future professions. The study adopted a descriptive and analytical method, relying on two data sources: secondary data obtained through the analysis of relevant previous studies, resulting in a proposed list of future professions and the main categories of required skills. The second source was primary data, presenting proposed professions and skills to 76 experts and academics in various core disciplines. After verifying the validity and reliability of the survey, it was applied, and data were collected and analyzed using descriptive statistical methods (Mean, standard deviation, and Percentage) to estimate the sample's responses to professions and skills. Inferential statistics (T-test & ANOVA) were used to detect the impact of sample variable differences on their estimation of professions and skills. The study identified 15 suggested future professions and a list of future skills categorized into three main groups: Personal Skills (7 key skills), Learning Skills (5 key skills), and Technical and Digital Skills (9 key skills).
