> if the underemployment rate for Ph.D.s in electrical engineering was 25% Probably. I'd say that too many people were getting PhDs in electrical engineering. If possible, we should address the root cause of that. For example, I suspect there are too many people getting Masters degrees in computer science today. It doesn't show as much because they just go back to the same jobs they had before, but I think it's a big problem that so many people are doing things that don't benefit them and I'd like to see that change. Mandatory outcome reporting in educational institutions might be a good way to combat the problem.
