Try the website Salary.Com. It will help you with both the job description/ title as well as how much their wages should be within any major locations.\n\nThis site helped me get an "A" with a serious software engineering essay that even gave me a chart on the job demand increase/ salary and expectations within that job area.

As with any field, how much money there is to be made depends on the supply and demand. There are many sub-fields in computer engineering from database management to embedded systems design. And then there are specialists and general engineers. Specialists generally get paid more, but have a more difficult time finding employment. General engineers have more that they can get hired for, but there are more of them, so the competition for jobs can be great. \nAnd then you get into marketing, that is marketing yourself. If you want to see the effect of marketing on your potential as a "computer geek", just look at the list of richest people in the world, and see who is at the top of the list. \nWhat I would recommend would be to look at what sub-field of computer engineering you enjoy the most, and are best at, and see how others in that field have fared. Learn from their mistakes and try new approaches to acheive success. In a free market economy, there is always potential, for success and for failure. Both can be educational.

impossible to calculate, but it is not much. if you teach by day and play by night, you can earn a good living.\n\nmusician

You know, we had asked the same exact question for my brother-in-law before.  But there are a few things you have to think about... "Game Design" has got more than one area.  You dont have just one person doing a whole game.  Here are some major parts:\n\n1. Game plot design - the playability of the game - I am not sure where you would go for this.\n\n2. Computer graphics - You would choose a good Art School and probably major in 3D computer graphics/animation.  Probably go to somewhere near/in Los Angeles or maybe even Florida.\n\n3. Computer Programming - You would choose a good engineering school with a Computer Science degree.  Plenty of options here, but you've gotta love programming/coding (like I do!).\n\nAnd then try to get internships at places like EA or other gaming companies.  I think there's HUGE competition in gaming, so it would be best to get your foot in the door as early as you can... or at least have a GREAT portfolio (if you are #2 above) or write some cool games (if you are #3) or write some cool novels (if you are #1).

Depends on where you are planning to work and how much experience.  But i think it's between $10-15/hour.  It's a good starting place but if you can work you're way to a designer (through experience or classes) then you'll be making a lot more.

I don't know of any really wealthy engineers.  Most engineers go into it for the love of it.  As a kid I was always interested in electronics (before the word existed). I was in it for 50 years and I'm now retired. It was a great job and I enjoyed every minute of it! More important you enjoy what you do than how much you make out of it.  A road sweeper might win the lotto and become a millionair.  Not to be jealous is the main thing. If you're an engineer, you got the more interesting job.  Just enjoy what you do. You may never be a millionair but you don't really need that much to live and enjoy life. You will find though, enough money will come for all your needs, including the overseas trips you may want to take. What type of engineering takes your fancy? Email me back at grandad29@kol.co.nz.  And the best of luck! I am only too willing to help if I can.

You can make alot but depends on where you work.  Print shops pay very well.  Alot of graphic designers also free lance.  They get leads from print shops and other places.  You can start off on the high side.  My friend started off at 35k

on average the starting salary would be around $30,000-$45,000.  That is not to say that it couldn't be more or less.  It all depends on how much experience you are bringing to the table.

I read somewhere that AAA players actually make around $3000 a month.

I would suggest posting on craiglist (and explain why you're offering below market salary) or http://www.dice.com is where tech. jobs are usually listed.

I don't have detailed information but\n\nI believe the video game designer has the most potential for a quicker spike money if the game goes over big or if you can find a new thing that people enjoy and do it first.  But it is also a very demanding carrer with pressure to get product to market.\n\nThe other two will also have good earning potential but come with an emotional cost.  You end up having to be very thick skinned.\n\nI think either way the money can be good.  Best of Luck in your search.

i work for an engineering firm doing CAD design and I started out at 51,000 a year.  I estimate that at the rate salaries are increasing by this time next year I will be making close to 80,000 a year.  I am only 23 by the way.

I work in Human Resources so a lot of salaries pass through my office. The amount you could make will vary greatly depending on your industry. Low end (education) $70k, high end (entertainment, energy, biotech) $200k.

Most programmers (for gaming) usually only work on a small part of a big programme. Around £25-30k
