<p>I am currently a highschool junior. I am interested in industrial design, computer science, and architecture. which one of these has the best job outlook?</p>
<p>Computer Science.</p>
<p>Computer science</p>
<p>computer science for sure.</p>
<p>CS or Architecture.</p>
<p>How about Mechanical Engineering?</p>
<p>Computer Science.</p>
<p>English Lit.</p>
<p>Nah j/k</p>
<p>1) Computer Science, or if your school offers it, Software Engineering
2) Engineering Disciplines</p>
<p>The number of software jobs will always outpace outsourcing due to quickly changing trends (mobile apps, etc)</p>
<p>Here are some [survey</a> statistics from the UC Berkeley career center](<a href=“https://career.berkeley.edu/Major/Major.stm]survey”>https://career.berkeley.edu/Major/Major.stm).</p>
<p>Note that if you look at past years’ surveys, you will see changes relating to economic cycles and industry cycles. E.g. 2006 civil engineering graduates did well, but 2009 civil engineering graduates did poorly.</p>
<p>2009 [computer</a> science](<a href=“https://career.berkeley.edu/Major/CompSci.stm]computer”>https://career.berkeley.edu/Major/CompSci.stm) graduates were 55% employed (average pay $75,847), 32% seeking employment, 13% grad school.</p>
<p>2009 [electrical</a> engineering and computer science](<a href=“https://career.berkeley.edu/Major/EECS.stm]electrical”>https://career.berkeley.edu/Major/EECS.stm) graduates were 52% employed (average pay $75,833), 20% seeking employment, 25% grad school, and 3% other.</p>
<p>2009 [business</a> administration](<a href=“https://career.berkeley.edu/Major/BusAd.stm]business”>https://career.berkeley.edu/Major/BusAd.stm) graduates were 82% employed (average pay $57,519), 13% seeking employment, 3% grad school, 2% other.</p>
<p>All of the above were among the majors with the best post-bachelor’s degree prospects in 2009.</p>
<p>Some of the majors whose 2009 graduates had the hardest time (percentages “seeking employment”) are:</p>
<p>80% Film studies
75% Earth and planetary science
71% Asian studies
62% Peace and conflict studies
59% Architecture
57% Comparative literature
55% Media studies
53% History of art
51% Sociology
50% Rhetoric
50% Materials science and engineering
50% Art practice
50% Environmental Science
50% Molecular environmental biology
48% Civil engineering
48% Psychology</p>
<p>Overall, the [2009</a> bachelor’s degree graduates](<a href=“https://career.berkeley.edu/CarDest/2009Campus.stm]2009”>https://career.berkeley.edu/CarDest/2009Campus.stm) were 28.3% employed full time, 36.3% seeking employment, 17.6% grad school, and 17.8% other.</p>
<p>Note: “other” is described as “The remaining students were engaged in other endeavors such as self-employment, part-time employment, internship and volunteer experiences, service in the armed forces, taking a year off or other pursuits.”</p>
<p>Computer science has good job outlook, but many of these jobs are junior programmers.</p>
<p>what about statistics?</p>
<p>FYI syoware. Computer Science and software engineering are synonymous.</p>
