hi,
i have just started a mining alt. i have heard that mining yields a decent profit. i was just wondering what is the profitability of mining in hisec or should i branch out into other carrers from it or is the mining more than enough to satisfy needs.

With 1 char mining in highsec your profits will be laughable.

What idiot told you this?
Max isk/hr for a fully skilled hulk is like 9-11 mil or something mining veld (not including hauling). I have no idea of the exact numbers but it definitely isn't much. If you want easy, semi afk isk then yeah its okay I guess...
Mining arkonor, bistot, crokite, and mercoxit can be pretty lucrative however, but you will not find these in high sec.

And even with a fully skilled booster and a hauler, you'll still be making less isk than a single char can do in lvl 4s

Hisec mining is no where near the best profit in the game. In fact, some would argue that it might be the lowest profit of any career in the game. However, you have to do what you enjoy to truly love this game. I love mining. I do not care if it is awful ISK/hr, I just do what I like to do. If you are looking to mine just to make money, then I recommend doing missions. There is a lot more to Eve than money. Granted money will help ya, but do what you love and then worry about the cash.

If the corp ventures into low sec for exploration belts or goes into null sec for high ends....yes it'd help.
At the very least regular mining ops provide a venue for mining and give you some people to talk to while you listen to the hums of your mining lasers

There is a rumour that CCP are going to increase the amount of ore needed to make hulls, to boost mining.

Correction: Never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever mine in Low Sec.
The low sec ores are the worst in the game for ISK/hour. Either mine in High Sec, or mine in 0.0.

While you are right about the low sec ores for the most part, you are wrong about mining in low sec. Some exploration belts will contain the ABC ores which are definitely worth mining.
