re: 1 out of 4 bachelor degrees and nearly half of masters degrees have a negative ROI

Not even sure about computer science. My daughter has been laid off twice as is currently without a job. She's taking courses to get certified in teaching computer science.
She got a great job at McKesson out of college. They asked her to train her replacements from India.
She can't even get an interview.
My other daughter has a master's in data analytics. She lost her job last year, and still hasn't found a job. She's looking at going back to college to do some sort of healthcare technician.

My son's first degree was in IT and my DIL's was graphic design, both from top schools in those fields. He saw too many cases of old employees being replaced by new graduates or the work being sent to India too.
They didn't like their future prospects and did a fast track nursing RN's with him becoming a CRNA. They get paid very well and work 3 long days a week now.

Coding and programming is a hired skill. The creativity generating the processes and ideas are the true assets.

Data Analytics is such a buzz phrase. It was already part of engineering problem solving. Also it is probably consist of some of the easiest items for programming/AI to take over. The creativity generating the processes and ideas are the true assets.

Coding positions not replaced with outsourcing to India or Taiwan will likely soon be replaced with AI ("soon" being within the next 10 years). She may want to change her focus to robotics, AI, networking or hardware if she's wanting to stay hands-on in the field. There are some support roles which will always be in demand (desktop support for large businesses and/or government agencies, for example), but the days of large teams of coders may be winding down.
