Ian Robertson, head of the engineering school at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, said that even without Foxconn, the state has a challenge attracting enough engineers. “If you look at our numbers, the answer is no,” said Mr. Robertson, about whether there are enough engineers to supply Foxconn at this stage. The school of engineering currently has 4,500 undergraduates and 1,400 graduate students, he said.
