So physics and "physical technology" aspects of engineering (e.g. mechanical and aerospace engineering) could compete with this trend and try to attract good students from this field

Further Information Technology is playing an increasing role in both experimental and theoretical science
-
Distributed collaborative environment to gather sensor data is as useful as optimal coding of Quantum Chromodynamics simulation

Note IT job opportunities are in applications -- perhaps more so than in "basic systems"

Having a Physics Ph.D., I will discuss this field as an example
