"don't have to deal with the tedious STEM education and workload."
I wouldn't call my STEM education tedious. Demanding more like it. Tedious gives impression of rote learning and abstract concepts separated from practical considerations and lack of joy of discovery and achievement. I could call the curriculum of my MSc in physics a decade ago by many things (I was straining at several points) but not "tedious".
Perhaps there is regional variation in the curriculum, culture and method of education (my university training was in Finland).
