SLOWDOWN IN UNDERGRADUATE CS DEGREES
After several years of growth, results from CRA's most recent Taulbee Survey show a slight decrease in the number of Bachelor's degrees in computer science granted last year by Ph.D.-granting schools, and a 20+ percent drop in the number of new undergraduates declaring their major in computer science. The numbers are available on the CRA website.
The Mercury News has a lengthy piece on this; the Atlanta Business Chronicle a shorter piece on the IT talent shortage.
