Windows 7 32bit blog the-catch-22-of-the-computer-

Chalk this as much as 1 of the issues I’ve been wanting to weblog about but haven’t …. Last week, USA Today reported that (as we’ve been hearing for a while) fewer students are majoring in computer science. Recruiters have been preaching this message, but once it gets in a mainstream paper, people start listening. Here’s the scary part to me: New enrollment in North American computer science and engineering programs has dropped four years straight,Office Home And Business, falling 10% during the 2003-04 school year from the year before,Windows 7 32bit, says the Computing Research Association, a trade group for computer professors. That's because good tech jobs have been hard to find, professors say. "Students are responding to the alarming rate that the job market changed (during the dot-com bust)," says Ohio State University computer professor Stuart Zweben. "They're also concerned about offshoring of jobs." Ironically, that could lead to more offshoring. Many low-level programming jobs have already been sent to such countries as India and China. But high-level jobs combining technical and business skills are still in the USA. That could change if there's not enough workers to fill them. Talk about a catch-22. Now,Office 2007 License, I’m not one to get into the great offshoring debate, but if you’ve ever gotten a couple drinks in me, you’ve probably heard me rattle on about the H1B cap, the decreased number of CS grads, and the increased competition for talent. And trust me … I started my career recruiting talent out of India. They have a far stronger engineering educational system than we do in North Amercia (I’m sorry … but it’s true.), and if we can’t provide US-based jobs to people who live overseas AND fewer North American students continue to major in CS, that doesn’t leave the industry in a very good position. Wait,Microsoft Office Professional Plus, I think my big boss said the same a few weeks ago. So the lesson here is …. Kids,Office 2010 Standard Key, major in CS or CE. Don't give the jobs a good reason to go away. (Don't forget .... We have lots of software engineering jobs open right now.) gretchen
