Also, USC Viterbi is a huge feeder school of EE/CompE students into Qualcomm in San Diego or Apple in San Diego or to Broadcom or to other less well known tech companies. San Diego County is the world capital for “digital communications” design & implementation. It also has a LOT of high-salary silicon design work (e.g., on ARM CPUs and also on RF chips). (Aside: Qualcomm’s entire business was built on the “Viterbi decoder”.)
