“So we have too many science (S) and math (M) folks - none of whom can do engineering or tech?”

Of course not.

Math courses are completely different than engineering courses. The different engineering disciplines aren’t interchangeable either. I have a BS in metallurgical engineering. Nobody would hire me to do electrical engineering. Nor would I want to even try.

I can’t believe you actually had to ask that. Would you go to an orthopedic surgeon if you had heart trouble?

From Trump's link: "Engineering has the highest rate at which graduates move into STEM occupations, but even here the supply is over 50% higher than the demand. IT, the industry most vocal about its inability to find enough workers, hires only two-thirds of each year’s graduating class of bachelor’s degree computer scientists. "
