stats
Your stats are created because Computer Science and other engineering degrees are being avoided. Kids just aren't going into that career path anymore.
What happened to half those 6 month computer schools. Out of business.
Why are students not going into computer science, cause it's not like it once was.
Nurses are the ones getting cars and signing bonuses now, not Computer Science graduates.
It's a fact of life.
If my nephew in a few years wants to get into computer science, good for him.. but in all honesty I would not recommend Software Engineering as a carreer.
Go more into Information Security because identity theft and fraud are at the top of everybodies list now.
Most people are Avg. And Avg kid with avg grades and a degree in computer science might get a job, he might not. The reality is, he probably will get a job he doesn't like and then when it's time for him to advance or move up, he'll be cut because he'd want too much money.
Hey people who want to go into software engineering that's great. But it is not like it was during the Dot COm BOom and the Y2K panic years.
About your stats though... Does it say how many of those future jobs and current jobs are being held by H1B Visa holders?
Most likely it does not.
Go work on many IT jobs and see that half of the workforce are those who can barely speak english. It's just the way it is. If the do a great job, it's not a problem. But many times, the problem is for US workers, they are judged no on their IT work but their communication skills. Yet, half the workforce being hired can't speak english. Go figure why people are heading to other fields.
