47,000 in just academic year 2011 to 2012 wow when accounting ONLY undergrads
And like CS has been superhyped recently…
Just 2012-2013 academic year is around 75,000 CS grads
http://nces.ed.gov/programs/digest/d14/tables/dt14_325.35.asp?current=yes
And with the recent trend (at least from what i saw at Madison)
Last year had around 850 in intro class compared to the previous year of 370
For some reason, I kinda worry we are going to have wayyy too many CS grads sometime soon
Wont be surprised after 4 years, there will be like 200,000 CS or computer related grads a year
ehh, what i can guess about this trend…
computer related field will face surplus of students and those without CS degrees can pretty much kiss goodbye to working this industry
and seriously, with this many CS grads each year, wont it be matter of time before they get paid much less?
o.ò ouch. Even if US has over a million unfilled CS jobs… a million CS grads will graduate within like 10 years at the most (from my guess). Add in H1 Visa and it seems more like those jobs can be filled in next 8 to 9 years.
Now im kinda worried about this field… le sigh. Who are the people hyping that no one has CS/engineering degrees?
Btw, bls claims that within the next seven years, there will be less than 222,600 software developer jobs.
and guess what, we graduate 1/3 that amount each year…
