In all seriousness, isn't a B.S. in Electrical Engineering more marketable than a B.S. in, say, Physics?

It was my general impression that you basically had to get a Ph.D. in the sciences for it to be good for employability.

This list has Electrical Engineering at #5, Physics at #10, with a difference of only 4%:
