Career Opportunities

Computer Science Student Careers Website
The Computer Science Student Careers committee was created to help students at all levels (UG, MS, PhD), with career opportunities. The committee will interface with the Stony Brook Career Center, work with companies on career and recruiting days, run resume writing and job hunting sessions, maintain a web-site for our students of CS-jobs and openings, etc. The main idea is to prepare our undergraduate as well as graduate students for jobs.

Stony Brook Career Center
The Stony Brook Career Center maintains a website for job seekers and recruiters to search for opportunities and post available positionsite is not specific to Computer Science or Engineering. The center also sponsors job fairs and resume workshops.

Computer and Mathematical Science Occupations Expected to Grow Quickest Over the Next Decade
Computing Research Association (12/05/07) Harsha, Peter
U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) projections indicate that despite concerns over the impact of globalization, computing-related occupations are expected to grow the most among all "professional and related occupations" during the 2006-2016 period.
BLS predicts that computer and mathematical science occupations will grow by about 24 percent over the next decade, which would add 822,000 new jobs. Although the growth rate for computer and mathematical science occupations has slowed compared to the previous decade, largely due to the outsourcing of "routine work" as the industry matures, strong growth in other aspects of computing will continue to create opportunities in the field. The report projects that among the six fastest-growing occupations with the largest numerical growth, three will be computer-related-computer software engineers, computer systems analysts, and network systems and data communication analysts. "The demand for computer-related occupations will increase in almost all industries as organizations continue to adopt and integrate increasingly sophisticated and complex technologies," the report says.
