It's a wide range depending on your discipline and where you teach.\n\nSome are as low as $40,000 while some go as high as $500,000 or more.  And for some that is just their base salary.  There is also additional income from consulting.

In the end it all comes down to experience. Unfortunately I was told that at the current company I work for that I would be making anywhere from $11-$13/hour (Not stated anywhere just told this). I ended up making $10/hour. When I asked why, I was told it was because of my lack of experience. A co-worker of mine makes $10.50 (50 cents more than me) for having 3 months more experience than me (0 days of experience in the current industry/field). To me that's just plain silly and unfair. But I don't really care. I don't have any college degrees so this is about the limit for a recent highschool grad!

Not necessarily, especially if you are the type of person who can start a business and make a success of it or if you are very creative or enterprising.  However, if you are counting on being employed by someone else the college degree will make a lot of difference - hundreds of thousands of $$$$ probably over your lifetime.  And it is something no one can take away from you ... once you have it, you have it.  It will open far more doors for you than will be open without the degree.

Depends on what field the degree is in... $20k-500k/year.  Please be more specific.\n\n*One friend of mine is a programmer at West Publishing.  He earns $52k.  Another friend of mine is an ISNT junior (help desk) for a hospital.  He earns $40k.  Both have been at their jobs for 5 years.  I would have to guess $32k for a starting salary with a private company.  If you can, get a job with the government or large institute.  Your benefits will be among the best available and you're almost guaranteed a 5% raise per year.  Get your foot in the door working at a help desk.  Dealing with morons for a few years is a small price to pay when you will be making $50k a few years later.\n\nGood Luck

Not too many..especially "academic" degrees.  Most money-making degrees are categorized as "professional" degrees such as doctor, dentist, and lawyer...all of which are doctoral-level degrees, roughly equivalent to Ph.D.

According to The Chronicle of Higher Education (2004-2005), you can expect a salary anywhere from around $30,000 to $70,000, depending on the institution and beginning rank. Typically, you would start out as an instructor or assistant professor, depending on your highest level of education and/or experience.  Generally, the higher your level of education, the higher the salary; however, unless you are a published Ph.D. with 5-10 years of academic experience, you should expect to start near the bottom at at community college. Even then, unless you are at a well-named school, the pay scale in academia is still quite low.  There are things, however, you can do to supplement your income including adjunct work, online teaching, tutoring, text reviews, etc. Best of luck!

Most people misunderstand the benefit of going to college and gaining a degree.  To a prospective employer, it doesn't say that you know everything about whatever your major was, but it does say you have the ability to focus, apply yourself to a goal with a timetable, and follow through with the required work & effort.  That's why even a degree in Marine Biology will help you get a job in a bank.\n\nThe salary differential between someone with a High School Diploma and someone with a Degree more than makes up for those "four years lost income".\n\nAverage High School graduates starting salary: $24,000\n\nAverage College graduates starting salary: $38,000 (add $10K more for engineers/computer science)\n\nThe really important thing, though, is do do something you really like to do!

that would be an endocrinologist.  As far as what they make that would depend on the area they are in, if they have their oun practice and how big that practice is.  I would say min. 200 g on average a year.  There could be some that only make 100 grand then some that earn 1 million.

i pay my associate degrees less than bachelor degrees.  around $175/day for and associates and $275/day for bachelors.  also, if it comes down to hiring one vs the other, the bachelors degree wins 100% of the time.  \n\nand do you need an excuse to spend 2 more years in college?  the workin world sucks!  enjoy school if you get the chance.

I'd imagine in the UK it does.  Doesn't mean much to people in the US - at least not anymore than a US degree.

Because *everybody* is getting a degree these days. My fiance spent $20,000 on hers, and she's making less than half of what I am, and I only graduated high school. Sometimes its just the luck of the draw.

Earning of a University professor depend upon several things:\n\n1) the location of the institution. For example: if it is an Ivy League school like Harvard, or Yale, for example, earnings may be higher in the same subject area of a professor from a small midwestern univeristy.\n\n2) The subject area taught: Polymers, science, business bring in donors and big bucks= more money for profs\n\n3) the status of the Prof: is he/she new to the profession? Then, the salary will be lower. If he/she has been at it several years and has published and served on committes= more money\n\nA lot of the salary depends on whether or not the prof has published. The key to tenure is publish, publish, publish.\n\nFor more information check out the Occupation Outlook Handbook.
