The banks still use COBOL, let's have grok rewrite their software too
My father-in-law is one of the last COBOL experts. Before he retired he spent 15 years training 3 people in COBOL so the business he worked for would not collapse. COBOL is irreplaceable and it is not being taught in any school in the USA.
There's a lot more COBOL folks out there than people realize. It also is still being taught in some universities.
UNT has an entire mainframe-focused course track:
- BCIS 3620 - Mainframe Concepts
- BCIS 5550 - Advanced Enterprise Systems Programming
- BCIS 5540 - Enterprise Systems Programming
Texas A&M has at least one COBOL class as well: https://catalog.tamusa.edu/search/?P=CISA+2354
I haven't checked other unis, but I suspect there are plenty more.
That's not to say these clowns know anything about it though, or they wouldn't have been working for Must in the first place.
Interesting! I was almost certain that COBOL wasn't being taught anymore.
