It's possible to make a good living as a generalist Systems Engineer (this [https://www.incose.org/systems-engineering] kind of systems engineering, not in the IT sense). It certainly helps if you bring some domain expertise, but SE skills are highly portable across all kinds of large projects in software, medical devices, automotive, aerospace, defence, civil engineering, construction etc. Same goes for managing requirements, business analysis and the like. I speak as an Arts graduate (French and Informatics - there is hope!) who has worked in Requirements and Systems Engineering across all of these domains for over 20 years.
