Abstract:
To bridge the skills gap in the software industry, we have already conducted a survey, whose results will benefit both the industry and as well as the academia, by creating the awareness of the expected skillset and the corresponding gaps in the academic curriculum (mostly for Turkish institutions). One of the opportunities the survey data provided as a further study is to analyze the trajectory of 628 software practitioners, who completed their undergraduate degree in Turkey. We believe that such a study will help to characterize and understand the possible educational and career paths of Turkey-educated software practitioners working in different countries. With the help of such initial inputs, we hope that Turkish researchers will study more qualitative approaches to investigate the root causes of these phenomena by increasing more industry-academia collaborations (IACs).
