Universities report marked declines in computer‑science enrollment and a rapid curricular rethink as AI automates routine coding and reduces demand for traditional junior developer roles. Faculty and deans — including Howard University’s Harry Keeling and leaders at Willamette and William & Mary — say entry‑level opportunities have contracted, contributing to an 8% drop in undergraduate and 14% drop in graduate CS enrollment this cycle. Institutions are debating curriculum changes that emphasize AI‑augmented engineering, applied team work, and stronger work‑readiness signals. The shift resembles past market corrections, but sources warn programs that do not adapt risk harming graduates’ labor‑market prospects.
