Goldman Sachs said it has found the first clear evidence that college students are steering away from majors exposed to AI, with enrollment in computer science and programming each down more than 10% in the 2025-2026 academic year. According to BeInCrypto, Goldman economist Pierfrancesco Mei mapped more than 180 majors to jobs using 2022-2024 Census survey data and scored occupations for automation risk, finding computer science, statistics and quantitative business among the highest-risk fields.
Campus data showed bachelor-level computer science enrollment fell about 14% at Arizona State University between fall 2024 and fall 2025, while Washington University in St. Louis saw the share of computer science majors drop 16% over two years.
