[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is up with all the unemployed STEM majors? Is it a supply imbalance or is AI? If supply side are any STEM fields more stable (e.g. civil vs computing, etc).[/quote]

Not sure what you are talking about.  By STEM, if you are referring to Chemistry and Biology majors hoping for medical school then I get it.  If you are talking about Tech and Engineering, they are doing much better than their classmates not Tech and Engineering.   [/quote]

+1 Engineering grads are out-earning every other grad including business/Econ, and the unemployment is low compared to others, not counting bio and chem. It is primarily CS/CompE affected, and mostly from middling schools. CS majors almost all have added a second major at top schools, or at least a minor, such as EE, physics, math, mechE or AI for the schools that have it. That trend began in 2024 when the coming bubble was obvious. CS alone is no longer a great major. Even the faculty and advisors are not so quietly encouraging the second major, or a 4+1 masters in a related field for schools that allow it(most elite do).[/quote]
