Engineering is about the only true job training left in college. Music might be a possibility, but you know there are few music jobs at best--high school band director. What else is there? Major in English and write perfect inter-office memos?

"Engineering is about the only true job training left in college."

As an EE, I can tell you that the job market SUCKS.

It's not so much outsourcing as it is the huge number of H-1Bs coming in to the country.

The funny thing is that in many cases companies hire these folks assuming that they know something. Some are excellent, but many are not, but it looks good on paper.

Just saved a bunch of money!
