Nick Black obtained a master’s degree in computer science from the Georgia Institute of Technology in 2010 and quickly received six-figure offers for leadership roles at several technology firms. He maintains that his position as a senior compiler engineer is exactly the type of job he expected out of grad school and that the interview process wasn’t excessively complicated.
Landing a job in today’s struggling economy was relatively simple for Black, in part because he received a master’s degree from a top computer science school, but computer science students with either bachelor’s or master’s degrees are in demand now and are expected to be for the next decade. According to a U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics report, there will be an estimated 1. 8 million new IT jobs by 2018, a 22 percent jump from today’s market.
The industry was dealt a blow after the dot-com bubble burst in 2000 following a decade of rampant speculation among investors, but the rise of cloud computing, mobile devices, and applications is fueling more demand in the sector, academic officials and hiring consultants say.
For prospective computer science students, the downside to this employment surge is the resulting increase in applicants, which will likely create tougher admission standards at programs nationwide. Trinity University officials are bracing for a potential influx of computer science students, and have already added an extra session of the introductory class.
To navigate the increasingly competitive computer science admissions process, it’s integral that students focus on honing their mathematical intelligence by taking advanced classes such as AP Calculus, says Daniel Gallagher, dean of admissions at the Stevens Institute of Technology. Robert Beck, chairman of Villanova University’s department of computing sciences, notes that taking part in tech-centric extracurriculars could help your chances as well.
Once students get past the admission exams, their career prospects are typically bright. At Michigan Technological University, for instance, where more than 300 students major in computer science or software engineering, 93 percent of 2010 undergraduate computer science students had jobs by graduation. Not only are students finding jobs at above-average rates, they’re among the best paid out of college, according to a recent survey by the National Association of Colleges and Employers. Computer science majors in the class of 2011 received an average starting salary of $63,017, second only to chemical engineers who make $66,886, on average. At some top schools like Illinois, average starting salaries are even higher. There, the most recent class of 175 computer science graduates attained an average starting salary of $ 72,597. [br] According to the last paragraph, which of the following statements is INCORRECT?
选项
A、Computer science graduates have advantages in job-hunting.
B、Computer science professionals may earn more than chemical engineers.
C、The fame of one’s graduate school means a lot to one’s starting salary.
D、Once enrolled, computer science students are guaranteed higher pay.
答案
D
解析
细节题。由题干定位至最后一段。该段提到计算机专业的学生毕业之后的前途一般都非常好。后文还讲到了该专业的学生平均工资比一般专业要高,但无法据此推断出“一旦入学,计算机专业的学生便保证能有更高的收入”,[D]为绝对化推断,故为答案。最后一段提到93 percent of 2010undergraduate computer science students had jobs by graduation,故[A]“计算机专业的学生在找工作方面具有优势”符合文意;尽管化学专业的学生平均工资比计算机专业的学生高,但本段最后两句话表明一些名校的计算机专业毕业生的工资可能高于化学专业毕业生,这同时也表明毕业学校的名声对其毕业生的起薪有重要影响,故[B]和[C]符合文意。
