Thirty five

That's the number of computer science PhDs graduating from Indian universities every year.

So says Ravi Venkatesan of Microsoft India, and he cites a figure of about 1000 for the US. The Financial Times report is here.

Thanks to Ram Mohan for the pointer.

    Once we have a 1000, the companies can have cheap laborers, even cheap post docs; as we have it in pure science.
