Demand for IT specialty among students in Ukraine is reduced by the third year in a row

Yevgeny Demkivsky Author of news Mezha.media and GIK. I write about technologies, cinema and games. Perhaps about games with a little more passion.

In 2025, Ukrainian entrants filed 114,248 applications for IT specialty-8% less than in 2024. This is the third consecutive fall: in 2024 it was 24%, in 2023 – 15%. About it reports DOU.

The most popular specialty is the computer science – 31 277 applications, which is 14% less than last year. The software engineering received 22 242 statements (−13%) and ranked 9th among all specialties. Cybersecurity – in 10 place, 20 354 statements (+8%).

Computer engineering lost 25% of applications (9705), taking 19th position in the overall rating. 4962 applications (+9%) were submitted for system analysis, 5411 (+2%) for automation and computer-integrated technologies.

The average data shows that in 2022 there were more than 160 thousand applications on IT directions, now less than 115 thousand. This can indicate both the saturation of the market and the reduction of confidence in the stability of the industry in war.

Despite the overall fall in the IT sphere, some adjacent technical directions are increasing. 2508 applications (+71%) were filed for statistics, 4683 (+16%) for mathematics, and 7787 (+15%) for applied mathematics.

Interest in applied engineering specialties is also increasing. In particular, 1573 applications (+61%) were filed for aviation and rocket and space equipment, 3496 (+22%) for road transport, 3827 (+13%) for energy.

In total, 166,835 people participated in the introductory campaign of 2025, who filed 781 857 applications for all specialties. On average, 4.7 applications for one entrant, so the number of applications submitted is not equal to the number of future students. Up to 5 applications were allowed to apply for the budget, up to 10.
