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.

选项
A、analyze the opportunity and challenge of computer science students
B、explain why more people tend to apply for computer science
C、persuade more students to choose computer science major
D、describe the phenomenon in computer science job market
答案
A
解析
主旨题。通览全文,文章分析了计算机行业整体向好的方向发展,使得计算机专业的学生获得就业优势,这是他们的机会,但同时也使这一专业录取的难度加大,这是挑战,因此[A]“分析计算机专业学生的机会和挑战”符合文意,为答案。文中并没有劝说学生选择计算机专业,也没有简单地描述这一专业的就业现状,故排除[C]和[D];而“解释为什么更多的人倾向于申请攻读计算机专业”不能全面概括本文内容,因此[B]也应排除。
