most "electrical" engineers work in the electronics, computer, communications and automotive industries.  I work as the chief engineer for a group of eight radio stations.

Salary of Network engineer is much higher than PC engineer. But may be a little bit lower or same as System Engineer. \n\nA network Engineer job base on wireless networking, networking, router, switch, hubs, infrustrature, cabling, connections, internet connection, internet traffic, LAN traffic analysis, WAN traffic analysis and troubleshoot, security, firewall and so on.\n\nd10v01b

To answer your first question, the pay is almost the same as long as you stablize yourself. But go for a major which you think will give you satisfaction working in long run. Pay is one of the factors to consider yes, but think of long run too. If you are comfortable being an electronic engineer then go for it. On the other hand if you think software is your deal, then go for software. Also, just because someone is electronics engineer, doesnt mean that they are not into computers. Some electronic Engineers do handle the computer networks too, which is the backbone of any company. They might be dealing more with computer hardware. If you are thinking of pay scale, well...there are so many computer hardware engineers and network engineers who make the same bucks. So think of what really makes you feel comfortable in the long run. When you are experienced enough, higher pay will automatically find you.\n\nComing to your second question.....oh..wait...i guess i answered this part in the first part of my answer itself. :-) Take care and good luck with your future.

aeronautic engineering is an engineering field where engineering with good experience and those who do this engineering field build parts for an areo-object,such as rocket,aeroplane,etc.\nthe greatest challenge or the advantage in this career is its a very rare career this days since most are going for medicine,and this career provides u with the best income.We'll get about $99,000-$105,000 per year.

Well I think Coupe60 is right about paying more attention to doing what you like. You'll be working a long time, so hopefully you'll like your job. Here are the five highest paying starting salaries for bachelor's degree graduates:\n\nChemical Engineering\nElectrical Engineering\nComputer Engineering\nComputer Science\nMechanical Engineering\n\nOf course, good salesman make lots of money. Managers also make good money.\n\nSee the article below for others.

I'm assuming you mean software development at a medium-to-large sized company:\nIn that case, team management and systems architect tend to have the best compensation levels.

UK Answer.\n\nThere isn't one. Software Engineers like all other professionals are paid based on their skills and how scarce or in demand those skills are.\n\nA junior programmer just starting out might only get paid somewhere in the region of £18k-20k. An engineer with good skills in an in demand field might earn as much as £50k-60k but I would say that this kind of salary would be quite unusual. Typically someone with good skills and a number of years relevant and up to date experience might expect to earn about £35k.\n\nThere are loads of job sites around that you can use to investigate this further.

Check out biomedical engineering if you get a chance... that is really the hottest engineering discipline right now...\n\nBUT, I would choose electrical engineering since you can do SO MUCH with that degree: Power engineering, RF/microwave, computers, software, circuits, system engineering, nano-engineering.... \n\nI also know of some electrical engineers who work as mechanical engineers... so in any event you are never really stuck... \n\nAlso, know that electrical engineering is the closest engineering discipline to pure physics... \n\nBUT choose mechanical engineering if mechanical doo-hickeys fascinate you... you are good with your hands... you like math.... you are comfortable using CAD tools on the computer.... you feel comfortable in a machine shop.... \n\nIn terms of the JOB MARKET.... as long as you get good grades in college you will get a job... TRUST ME. Good engineers are a rarity... ALSO, if you learn a foreign language like Chinese or Korean than the job recruiters will be knocking your door down.

An engineer facilitates the implementation of real world solutions to projects requiring not only planning and production but hands on completion as well.  It's a wonderfully rewarding gig if you can get it, especially in telecommunications.  I love my job !!

Currently, computer programming is the highest paying field in computers, and software engineers are the highest paid computer programmers.

engineer, at least that's what i'm going to major in next year.  i think it would be the best job becasue there is going to, and is starting to be a shortage of engineers so they'll be in high demand and will get to choose from job offers as to where they want to work.  they also make pretty good money, but i'm not sure how much compared to the other professions.  engineering requires lots and lots of math... including calculus!! yay for engineering!!!\nooh, also, there are several different fields of engineering so that you could pick the field that would best suit your interests, though i'm sure that is true of the other professions.\ntoodles!!!

I'm an Electronics and Computer Engineer.  Look at government positions for a Civil Engineer first and I think you would like the opportunities there.
