Best-Paying College Degrees

[Babs]

Only graduates with bachelors, but not higher degrees, are included... Only graduates who are employed full-time and paid with either an hourly wage or an annual salary are included.

So the six economics majors who actually got jobs are paid very well. lol.

This just goes to prove that it is true. The geeks shall inherit the earth.

I remember the Geography Club at BYU had a poster trying to draw in some new blood that listed Michael Jordan as a geography major and his salary.

My second oldest really wants to be an engineer and that career would suite him very well. We are a pretty geeky family.

I remember reading something about the BYU law school including Steve Young's salary into their metrics in the year that he graduated. I guess he was still playing for the 49ers when he finished law school.

Lack of stress? Tell that to the pharmacist that I consulted to run a highly dangerous drip on for a patient that could have bled to death by sneezing on her. That is stress.

to clarify - community pharmacist = lack of stress. With one additional clarification. If you second guess yourself, you can't be a pharmacist. You can't go home at night and wonder if you filled this or that script wrong. If you can't shut that part of your brain off, you can't be a pharmacist. Probably 10-15% of my wife's graduating class never got their licenses to practice. A lot of them are drug reps. That's a whole lot of education to be a drug rep...

The strange thing is that the community pharmacists get paid significantly more than hospital pharmacists.
