Georgia employers are on the hunt for engineers, computer programmers, software developers, accountants and other business support staff — as well as welders and machinists, according to a report from the High Demand Career Initiative.
But nearly a third of the state's college students are earning business and education degrees, according to recent data.
Top degrees also include health professions and social sciences; and the least-earned degrees include legal professions, communication technologies and transportation and materials moving.
