Software Developer Brilliant? We're hiring. My name is Keenan Curtis, and I’m reaching out on behalf of Epic Systems in Madison, WI. We already post jobs to USC’s general job boards, but are looking for more proactive ways of reaching the best and brightest students. For this reason we would like to post our Software Developer job on the CSE Job Board. Code with a purpose. In the world of healthcare, having the right information in the right place at the right time isn't just important - it can mean the difference between life and death. Through the use of Epic's software, harmful medication errors are avoided every day in hospitals across the United States - and that's just one small way your code will help others save lives. As a developer at Epic, there's a good chance your innovations will affect the life of someone close to you - in fact, you'll directly impact the way 1 in 3 Americans receives healthcare. You'll push the boundaries in creating software to reduce medical errors, improve screening for diseases, and lower the cost of medical care while improving its quality. Have Fun. You will write code and more - your input will guide all elements of innovation. You'll meet with experts and end-users and determine novel approaches to each facet of development, from database to user interface. Join a small team of the best and brightest from across the world; Epic's employees currently represent more than 60 nations. With talented co-workers whose passion and willingness to go above and beyond is unparalleled, and a workspace conducive to serious development, you will thrive in a collaborative and casual environment.

Epic offers highly competitive wages and all the benefits you'd expect from a leading software company (401k, great insurance, and stock appreciation rights). But, we also have benefits that definitely fall outside the realm of the anticipated. Have you always wanted to go to New Zealand, but never gotten the chance? Epic's five year sabbatical program not only provides you with an additional four weeks of paid vacation, but it will also cover airfare and lodging costs for you and a guest in any country you've never seen before. You'll also have plenty of opportunities to give back to the community through Epic's charitable efforts. Oh, and did we mention the treehouse? By applying for Software Development, you'll be considered for all development opportunities across Epic's numerous teams. You will use various technologies to build multi-tier enterprise software for healthcare organizations, including C#.NET, HTML, ASP.NET, VB6, Cache, iPhone, iPad, Business Objects, and Pocket PCs.

The NACE Salary Survey of new College graduates is out (full report) and it says:

Graduates within the computer sciences fields have starting salaries that are 2.4 percent higher this year; their overall median starting salary rose from $55,087 to $56,383. employers in the information sector reported the highest number of new graduate entrants, with an impressive starting salary to boot—$64,400.

and

Computer engineering grads are the highest paid of the engineering disciplines, with a median salary of $67,800, a 0.6 percent increase over their class of 2011 counterparts’ median salary.

The figure below is taken from the full report. 'Computer Science' salaries tend to be lower than 'Computer Engineering' simply because there are many community colleges and online schools that offer Computer Science degrees, while Engineering degrees are only offered by major Universities with Engineering Colleges.

Every year in May the Computing Research Association publishes the Taulbee Survey which is the principal source for information on the enrollment, production, and employment of Computer Science and Engineering majors in the US and Canada. That is, this is data you want to know. Check out the Computing Degree and Enrollment Trends report. The chart below is taken from that report:

From Computing Careers Market, based on Bureau of Labor and Statistics, we get the following chart: In other words:

For the foreseeable future, nearly 3 out of 4 new science, technology, engineering, or mathematics (STEM) jobs in the U.S. are going to be in computing! By contrast, just 16% will be traditional engineering jobs, and even fewer will be in the sciences or mathematics.

It looks like Pac-man. Awesome.
