What Can You Do With a Engineering Degree?

A broad path into designing and building technical systems across industries. We track 4 careers that a Engineering degree commonly leads to, with median pay from $79,960 to $145,000 depending on the role and how far you take it.

How these numbers work: A major does not have its own salary. The pay above comes from the 4 careers below that a Engineering degree commonly leads to, using each one's national median wage from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Entry-level roles sit toward the bottom of that range and advanced or graduate-level roles toward the top, so where you land depends on the specific career and any further education.
