Key points of the “Analysis of IT education in Ukrainian universities” developed by experts from the Better Regulation Delivery Office BRDO:
?The number of IT bachelors graduating from Ukrainian universities will increase significantly in the coming years. In 2024, more than 20,000 students will obtain a bachelor’s degree in IT (this is 23% more than in 2020).
?In Ukraine, the demand for new IT specialists counts up to 30000-50000 per year. In turn, higher education institutions annually produce an average of 16200 graduates with bachelor’s degrees in IT.
?Experts developed three scenarios, under which this proportion can change:
A “dynamic growth” scenario: the proportion of university applicants taking IT courses will continue to grow at the current rate up to 16.1% in 2026 – 37.4 thousand new specialists in 2030.A “restrained growth” scenario: the proportion of university applicants taking IT courses will remain at the same level as now — 12% – 27.8 thousand in 2030.A “slow growth” scenario: the proportion of university applicants taking IT courses will gradually decrease to 10% in 2026 – 23.2 in 2030.Read more
