So now you’re graduated. Or you’re on track to graduate in, like, five years. So after being a super senior, what the heck are you going to do with the rest of your life?
We just want to say one word to you: plastics.
Yeah, maybe in 1967 [1].
US News and World Report [2] released a report on the best careers for those carrying a bachelor’s degree. And English majors won’t be living in cardboard boxes after all.
The top highest-paying careers are as follows:
bq. 1. Management Consultant – $96,245 – Bachelor’s in Business
bq. 2. Fund Raiser – $78,902 – Bachelor’s in Business
bq. 3. Actuary – $75,062 – Bachelor’s in Accounting
bq. 4. Engineer – $72,156 – Bachelor’s in Engineering
bq. 5. Systems Analyst – $70,438 – Bachelor’s in Computer Science
bq. 6. School Psychologist – $63,029 – Bachelor’s in Psychology
bq. 7. Registered Nurse – $59,046 – Bachelor’s in Nursing
bq. 8. Editor – $52,443 – Bachelor’s in English
bq. 9. Landscape Architect – $49,974 – Bachelor’s in Architecture
Of course, you can earn more being, say, a doctor or a lawyer. But those careers involve more than a bachelor’s. One would hope.
But if you’re pretty much done with school effing you over, that there list is your guide to the top-dollar life of a college grad.
Yeah, only if you could get into Haas.
