Employers are not stupid. Universities that implement the ridiculous no grade fad will see their graduates shunned. Especially so in the STEM specialties that I am acquainted with.

With respect to the semiconductor manufacturing, the subject of this OP, I expect the technician roles to be dominated by life science and chemists. Manufacturing and QC dominated by EE and a smattering of chemists, ME and ChE. Maintenance and support by EE, computer engineering and ME and a few ChE. Engineering Department to be heavy on EE, computer specialists and ME plus a few ChE.

History, psychology and political science majors need not apply. Starbucks is down the road.

“History, psychology and political science majors need not apply.”
