Modeling Choice of Major of College Graduates: Do High School IT Courses Lead to Matriculation in the IT Field?
James Ford
Enrollment in Information Technology-related university programs is a concern given the reported shortage of qualified workers.

Furthermore, taking IT/computing courses while still enrolled in high school is shown to be important predictors of matriculating in these fields. Gender is also found to have an influence.
