Computer Science Enrollment Is Down by Half Since 2000
Reports are trickling in about the latest enrollment numbers in computer science from the Computing Research Association.
The latest Taulbee Survey—set to be published in full by May—says that in 2007, undergraduate enrollment in computer-science programs had fallen to half of what it was in 2000 (15,958 to 7,915, to be exact).
However, there’s an inkling that enrollment will stabilize, as the new enrollment numbers flattened in 2006 and increased in 2007. —Hurley Goodall
