[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In general, it's still a fairly small number majoring. Google says there were 82,500 kids graduating with a Bachelor's degree in engineering in 1990 and it's 200,000 today. Assume a 50% dropout rate, but those are still small numbers compared to the entire college population. Like many other careers, the engineers who are best able to use AI to increase their productivity 5x will be in high demand.[/quote] There are 2 million freshmen every year. So engineers are 10%? That seems like a lot.[/quote] Sadly, engineering has a high dropout rate, about 50%. The math is challenging for most. [/quote] I think posters that hate on engineering majors on this board know they couldn't survive nor have the math/science aptitude for that curriculum so they spend the rest of the time posting how humanities is the new major in this new age technology. lol.
