Software developers, applications, tops the list of hot jobs for new and mid-career college graduates, according to a new report by the University of California San Diego Extension.

Here are the top 10 jobs:

1. Software developers, applications
2. Software developers, systems software
3. Accountants and auditors
4. Market research analysts and marketing specialists
5. Cost estimators
6. Computer network architects
7. Management analysts
8. Personal financial advisors
9. Elementary school teachers, except for special education
10. Financial analysts

“Global markets, the rise of big data and the continued reach and influence of the digital world, all helped propel jobs for software developers, computer network architects and marketing analysts to the top of the list,” said Mary Walshok, associate vice chancellor of public programs and dean of UC San Diego Extension.

Shifting demographics are also fueling growth in such careers as personal financial advisors and elementary school teachers.

“Aging baby boomers and the decline in pensions are increasing the need for professionals who can help people properly prepare for retirement,” Walshok said. “On the other hand, more elementary school teachers are reaching retirement age and creating a real demand for new teachers to fill that void.”

This list scored careers in four criteria categories: current employment in the field, projected growth between 2012 and 2022, the median salary, and workplace environment.
