[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I graduated as a mechanical engineer 25 years ago, my starting salary was $58,000. It's definitely strange that college graduate are not making much more a quarter century later. What's going on?[/quote] Many times they lump a bunch of people into these engineering categories. As an example, many semiconductor and manufacturing companies hire 2-year Associates Degree "engineers". These folks probably went to community college or even went the apprentice route. It is an efficient way to have a career that may top out at $100k, which is a very nice living for many people. I would not be surprised if there are many examples of those types also included in the statistics.[/quote]
