[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For software? Well, duh, people have been warning kids for years not to go into computer science unless they were ultra-smart and planning to complete for the few AI supervisory roles. My kids are not going into CS. [/quote] I am glad I studied pure mathematics because it thought me how to solve hard problems. I am an electrical engineer and when I tell people my background and that I never took a single course in circuits or electronics they are shocked. Sadly though corporations today want workers who are ready from day 0. I don't think a young grad who studied pure math will be hired because he doesn't have the "practical" skills to be used from day 1.[/quote] Such a shame that we think of college right now as job training and try to find “ROI” or first job salary as what you need to focus on. Math, physics - these are the things we should want our young people to be trained in. It’s hard. And maybe not as practical. But the fundamentals don’t change over their lifetime. These kids have the basics to learn pretty much anything technical. [/quote]
