One-quarter of computer science jobs in the Department of Defense go chronically unfilled. The existing national shortage of computer science talent is expected to increase; the Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that by 2026, the shortage of developers in the United States will exceed 1.2 million. For our nation’s security, it is imperative to develop local science and engineering talent.
