agreed!

look at engineering grads now - some universities end up creating 'engineering technology' courses
for those with lower qualifications.

lecturers teaching them just for the sake of teaching & KPI to ensure 90% students pass,
else have to answer to the faculty.

these 'engineering' students go out and apply jobs - either not getting any interviews or flunking interviews
because they don't even know what they study in the first place, ask simple fundamental questions also
cannot answer.

those working end up frustrated either because

1. they can't perform in their jobs

2. actually their passion is not engineering but rather MLM

3. salary lower than expectation because employer can offer RM3.5/mth vs. RM5k that they want.

thus resorting them to become food panda rider/grab food rider/grab driver

and afterwards take it to social media saying that they studied mechatronics engineering technology
and now working as food delivery engineer.

adults blame them because they're strawberry generation.

they replied back with 'OK, Boomer'.

why no future? its a job, which produce something beneficial towards society and economy.

its the gomen that should create the potential, build up platform for these jobs to sustain, not asking students to let go of their dreams, and be like a robot to follow set paths. later those professions will be flooded then still they cant get jobs.

bullshit la dey..

you can paint a flowery picture, apply for Ts/Technologist whatsoever but look at the quality of the graduates & courses themselves.

not even talking about the lecturers of such programmes.. they were said to have come from industry but
after becoming academicians, the industrial qualities that they might have before all goes down the drain.

unless you've graduated from such eng'g technology course, prove me wrong.
