Comment Re: My experience with engineers in China (Score 1) 78
I've taught on the order of 500 US stem students (2005-2013) and the majority, probably around 80% are the same as the Chinese majority engineers you describe. Uncurious people, not particularly interested in science or technology, or critical thinking. In fact I would bet a plurality or close to it were first generation college students, probably didn't want to get their hands dirty like their parents. Americans engineers are not exceptional.
