There's good news if you're a nurse or if you want to go into medicine. Nursing will be No. 1. The U.S. will need over 3.2 million registered nurses in 2022.

There's also good news for people interested in careers involving computer programming and statistics. Notice that most of the top jobs require an ability to work with technology or numbers.

Of course, we'll still need more traditional jobs like doctors, lawyers, accountants and teachers, all of which make the top list.

And what about the jobs with the lowest projected demand in 2022?

Predicting the future entails uncertainty, so take these charts with a grain of salt.

But, these results paint a reasonable picture of the job market in 2022.
