Especially interesting to me is the quote "combining a technology degree with business knowledge will lead them to the higher-paying areas of IT." Double major anyone? In any field?
"Computerworld - Information technology has always been a fast-changing field. But nothing compares to the expected sea changes in the next decade that will impact the career plans of every generation of IT worker.
'The rate of change has accelerated dramatically,' says Alain Chesnais, president of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and founder of Visual Transitions, which specializes in computer graphics and social networks. Consider, he says, that graphics chips are doubling in capacity every six months. That translates into a thousandfold increase in capacity over a five-year period -- the average shelf life of most game platforms. 'We've never seen anything like it in any industry,' he says."
