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] It can be inferred from the passage that the IT industry______.
选项
A、needs a large number of professionals
B、is jeopardized by venture investment
C、counts on new technologies to develop
D、used to experience a period of recession
答案
D
解析
推断题。对于IT行业的整体情况,在第三段中有所论述。该段为独句段,转折词but之前的部分提到,在经历了十年的快速投机性投资之后,该行业was dealt a blow after the dot-com bubble burst in2000,其中blow有“重击,打击”之意,可见该行业曾经历过衰退,故[D]为答案。虽然该段的转折词but之后提到了云计算、移动设备和应用使该板块人才需求增加,但不能因此判定这个行业现在还需要大量的专业人才,而除了云计算是新技术之外,原文提到的其他因素并非新技术,故排除[A]和[C];[B]是对文中rampant speculation among investors的曲解,原文是指投资者进行了投机性投资,而不是指风险投资使IT行业陷入险境,故排除[B]。
