What is the job market like for computer science degrees?
Even though programming and help desk support has been outsourced, other parts of the computer field are still growing strong since you still have to do a number of computer tasks onsite (unless you're in an area saturated with programmers, where competition for computer jobs is still intense). Here's what the US Dept of Labor's Occupational Career Handbook has to say about computer systems design:





The computer systems design and related services industry grew dramatically throughout the 1990s, as employment more than doubled. And despite recent job losses in certain sectors, this remains one of the 25 fastest growing industries in the Nation. Wage-and-salary employment is expected to grow 40 percent by the year 2014, compared with only 14 percent growth projected for the entire economy.





So what kinds of computer careers are hot:


-The demand for networking and the need to integrate new hardware, software, and communications technologies will drive the demand for consulting and integration.


-A need for more customized applications development and for support and services to assist users will drive demand for applications development and facilities support services.


-And, as more individuals and organizations conduct business electronically, the importance of maintaining system and network security will increase.





Here's the US Dept of Labor's description of the growth of the computer field, descriptions of the computer jobs that are growing, and computer job outlook and wages:
