Statistics about the Computing and Information Professions

As Computing and Information Professionals are employed in many different fields (technology, librarianship, education, manufacturing, healthcare—to name just a few), statistics about employment and earnings vary greatly. For example, the salary range for a software engineer in a multinational corporation is vastly different than the range for a web designer in a small advertising agency. Similarly, the earnings potential for a public librarian in a major metropolitan area differs greatly from that of a school librarian in a rural district.

Below, you’ll find a listing of Web resources that explore employment projections and earning potential in some of the fields that depend upon the skills and knowledge of Computing and Information Professionals. This is not an exhaustive list; you’ll find a great many information resources in addition to these. But, they may offer you at least a start on your career research.
