I did not came out with my own data on the following informations. The data is from NACE Salary Survey [National Association of Colleges and Employers]. Yes, it is true, chemical engineers have the highest pay per annum compared to other disciplines. This information is consistent with my earlier post last May - Big Cash Awaits Chemical Engineers, which states that annual salary for chemical engineers increased 5.6 % to $59,707 - info from CNNMoney.com. So, if you are a chemical engineering student or a chemical engineer, that's a really good news....ain't it? If your starting salary is small, perhaps your yearly increment and bonus will be a paid handsomely....
