I would like to know what is meant by "Computer science jobs" The context is that the author is a computer science professor discussing the prospects of people graduating from his program, so I would interpret this very broadly as "the sorts of jobs that a person with a newly-minted computer science degree tends to pursue." Typically this is jobs where one's job revolves primarily around writing code. To me, Computer Science would be like research type jobs. These are all arbitrary labels in an ever-changing field so I'm not going to say anybody is right or wrong, but I'm quite certain this is not what others typically mean when they say "computer science jobs." IT would be working on Internal Applications for a Business If a person's job primarily revolves around writing and shipping code this is most commonly just called "software engineering" or "software development" whether or not it's internal software or some kind of external product offered for sale externally. If it's internal application development, the department might typically be called "IT" but the job role would still typically just be "software developer" or "software engineer." This is what I did, in the 70s/80s/90s it was all in-house systems. Starting early 2000s, systems like SAP. I have since retired I've been at it since the late 90s. Just a baby compared to you. :D Congrats on making it thru and retiring!
