[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Which hard science/STEM field only makes 50-70k with a Master's?[/quote] Most of them! Except maybe engineering. Many biology type fields need a PhD to be competitive and that doesn't even guarantee a high salary.[/quote] = bad investment then. In my electrical engineering/computer science world... fresh-out-of-school starts in the 90K range. A few years in and your into the 120K range. Why get a PhD (which = massive investment of time and money) to earn very little? A close friend of mine got a PhD in Chemistry did an adjunct teaching gig at MIT for about two years... was earning around 38K. This was absolutely stupid The only way she was able to afford to live was because her granddad was paying for her rent and stuff. The phD took 5 years! She works as a lab assistant at a university now makes very little. Sometimes it is just NOT worth it.[/quote]
