my first hand experience says:
Nursing and Accountants are in much higher demand than anything on that list.
Nearly every graduate has a job BEFORE graduating in those two fields.
My brother owns a home health care franchise in California. When he started in the business there were three different franchises. Now there are some 37 or so franchises. Nurses and quality home health care people are in high demand. He spends much of his time trying to recruit nurses. Instead of do-gooders getting a degree in gender studies, these people need to get a degree where they can help people first hand.
But that list is of year-over-year growth. I’d think nursing and accounting are not as sensitive to the economy as some of the other disciplines.
DON’T study engineering.
Not worth the effort.
Nursing would be part of #5. Accounting would be part of #6.
