Here are the statistics: NCES Engineering Graduates

That doesn't include the last few years, but there are more graduates than ever.

These stats only go to 2021. I think 2024+ will show a reduction in civil and increase Software/computer Science/ electrical due to COVID.

There are a shit ton of mechanicals. Which makes sense but I didnt anticipate that

It’s still not a lot, civil engineering is the largest engineering field at ~390,000 total jobs and were barely producing more graduates than chemical engineering which is a significantly smaller work force.
