<p>I haven’t read the article but I’m thinking it explores a link between engineers and ISLAMIST terrorists… then its no wonder it came out like that.
Most third world Islamic countries have a rather different outlook on education as a whole. In general guys mostly study science/engineering anyway, regardless of whether they like it or not, (or whether they harbor terrorist intentions). If you found a guy doing an English major… he’d basically get a *** is wrong with you? So considering terrorism, it would need to attract the manliest of men (lol), which would naturally fall to engineering/biochem, etc. Just look in any top tier engineering program in the US… you’ll find a larger concentration of Muslim men in engineering… or in business, which seems to be the new trend.</p>
