Quote : | "Duke University seniors can expect to earn $55,300 when the graduate and $117,000 in the middle of their career, according to the payscale.com’s 2010-11 college salary report.
A Duke degree offered the ninth highest salary potential in the nation.
The website compiles a list of median starting and mid-career salaries for most universities in the nation. Starting salaries reflect pay during the first two to five years in a career, while the mid-career number reflects about 15 years experience.
N.C. State University students can expect to earn a bit less, at $47,600 in starting salary and mid-career salary of $83,500.
And UNC-Chapel Hill seniors can expect to earn $42,700 upon graduation and $82,900 later in their career.
NCSU students largely benefit from engineering jobs, which tend to pay higher wages early on. Of the 10 highest paying majors, seven are engineering degrees, with petroleum engineers being the top earners.
Topping the list nationally was Harvey Mudd College, a liberal arts school in California with a large engineering program. Seniors there can expect to earn $68,900 upon graduation, $10,000 more than second place finisher Princeton University. Mid-career salaries, however, are much closer, with Harvey Mudd graduates taking home $126,000 compared to Princeton’s $123,000.
Here are salaries for other area institutions:
N.C. Central University: $37,000 starting and $62,000 mid-career
Meredith College: $35,100 starting and $54,200 mid-career
Shaw University: $34,500 starting and $47,300 mid-career

Truth be told, most UNC guys I've met appear more intelligent, at least on the surface, than State people.

Carolina people are delusional
You're gonna tell me your psych degree was harder than my Chem E degree because you had to do 10-page reports every other week?

of course writers and wannabe journalists SOUND smarter when they talk, thats pretty much exactly what their degree taught them to do. Put a math or engineering problem in front of them and see how smart they really are. 7/24/2010 8:52:18 AM |

If you went to MIT and had a higher SAT than NCSU's 1240 average... but ended up working for a non-profit and making dick, you're fucking stupid.
ITT you are the superior human being if you are an engineer who went to NCSU and now makes lots of money. TWW ftw ITT
