The computer software has more innovation than the computer hardware, this has lead to the slow and limited growth in the demand for computer hardware engineers and rapid growth for computer software engineers. With the recent increase in hardware companies that produce computer hardware like chip, processors and storage devices, the computer hardware industry is growing and this has lead to the creation of more job opportunities for computer hardware engineers.
