You are 10 years too late to do STEM. There's already an overproduction of engineers and software developers. Let alone the S and M majors which have always been a joke, should've called it EngiTech or something.
Now the only jobs that have good pay and security and can be done by a subhuman male are in the most dangerous and back-breaking trades since women and most normies won't go near them. Of course there are many other high-paying jobs but they require a good network/nepotism to get into, which as a subhuman male you are excluded from.
That's why there is no point in doing STEM anymore. Also if you're a nearcel (aka not completely subhuman), doing STEM will ruin the last chance in your life to be surrounded by young fertile women and maybe date one of them. If you're a trucel of course it doesn't matter.
Even for making friends, you have to make them in like the first month of freshman year. After that social circles become cemented and it's very hard to break into one. You might make acquaintances but they'll ditch you as soon as you no longer have classes together, let alone after graduation. Clubs might work if you can find one with a bunch of autists, IDK I only joined one right before corona cucked what little was left of my college experience.
