America is in danger of experiencing an academic brain drain

Unironically I would be literally thrilled to contribute to this brain drain. I'd drop everything and get on a plane right this very second for a chance to do a PhD in literally any other country.
If anyone is looking to fill a electrical engineering PhD position literally anywhere but America then I'm ya boy.

Finland has tuition free PhD programs for nationals of any country, Germany and Netherlands offer paid research positions where you basically are a full time student and still a part time lecturer - working hours can be tough though, since you need to balance the two. If you have some modest savings, Malaysia has some excellent universities and very cheap tuition (I'm doing my phd here and pay about 10k USD for a 3 year program) and cost of living is very low.

ive seen a MS holder being a TA/partial teaching of the lab only. it seem extremely stressful, hopefully hes done with his PHD by now. there were many in undergrad class were pretty uncertain with thier future in the stem.

Does Malaysia do their classes in English?
-
Yep, from highschool onwards the education system is fully in English. It's pretty much an exact copy of the British system from that point on, thanks to the colonial past.

In EEng most positions in Germany are without mandatory teaching. Unless you want to, as you would need teaching experience to be eligible for a professorship.
Germany is actually really good if you have a full-time position, as the salary is somewhat comparable to a normal job, at least in CS/CE.

wish my CC dint made it thier mission that some of thier courses were as hard or harder than ivy leagues, they claimed its for "aligning" with certain transfer universities criteria(i personally think its bs, because i dint see an official memo of them saying its true), i think its meant to keep students perpetually(dropping retaking class, washing out of a class retaking it) in the cc so they can have a constant stream of funding.

Yeah, we gonna need loads of that for 7th gen fighters, resilient next-gen green smart grids, etc. Bon voyage!
PS: we're not better than the US, but at least our political systems can delay full fascist takeover for about 5-20 years...which may be enough time to reverse it politically or to at least create defenses against it.

Thank you for this. I couldn't find this for some reason.

So I am in no position to help you but I do have a very strange and hypothetical (ish) question:
How feasible would it be to hack a monitors firmware and use it to send and receive data, assuming that the data being sent is encoded on, say, the green color channel of said monitor and you had an sdr or some specially configured device set up somewhere to help make this very specific and bizarre idea work?
