Foreigners are smart enough to know that's where the jobs are! Not science!

https://ncses.nsf.gov/pubs/nsf20301/report/fields-of-study

In 2018, temporary visa holders earned the majority of doctorates awarded in engineering (57%) and in mathematics and computer sciences (55%). Since 1999, the proportion of temporary visa holders increased the most in those two broad fields...

You get paid more with a PhD in engineering versus a BS in engineering. Science is just a crap shoot to even find a job after you graduate let alone the salary.

The only reason to do Ph.d in science is because you bombed your MedicalGPA. Scientists are all fagets irl afaik. Science is literally liberal arts, lmfao

PHDs are all striver faggots but ljl at “the jobs!!” or money or shrewdness being reasons to do engineering PhD over science.

Engineering phds are equally dumb strivers

The point is that a PhD in science is useless whereas a PhD in engineering isn't necessarily.

You are right that they are striver faggots though.

there's no reason to ever get a phd (or even a masters generally) in engineering unless you're in academia or you're a supernerd.

Generally, engineer = supernerd

It's worth it if you want to research outside of academia

Or you having a burning passion for some geek subject like AI or machine learning

I'd rather have a PE than a PHD. The license at least enables you to rent seek, especially in CA that requires engineering review for bullshit home improvements like a deck.

Probably because you don't need a PhD to be an engineer but you do need a PhD to be a scientist.

Since they don't need visas to stay here, the type of Americans who bother to get PhDs are doing it for the sheer scholarship, not the money.
