Which College Degrees Earn The Most?

Heading to College?
According to jobs.aol.com by-and-large those graduating with various degrees in engineering it's predicted stand to make the most money after graduation.

Caveats
This however doesn't necessarily bring in the most bang for the buck.

Return On Investment: Oft times these degrees can cost much more then other college courses or those offered at trade schools.



Other factors should be considered. (a) How much financial aid is available at one college over another. (b) All degrees are not the same. A degree from Harvard or Yale is more greatly accepted then one from Timbucktwo University (c) One university has more universally recognized specialized degrees then another even if they are famous for something else.

'Business News Daily' listed on March 2, 2015 what they thought were the 50 College Majors With the Best Return on Investment. They considered, "Overall, degrees in information technology, computers programming/computer science, business/management, medical support, and retail and administration were the five categories that offer the largest return on investment."

There's Another BIG Consideration
The student should have a knack or talent alongside a determined interest in whatever degree they chose to pursue. Otherwise they might as well stay home. They and their parents should save the money as well as the lost four years worth of earnings these kids could have made while needlessly camping out at an institute of higher learning. I can't tell you the amount of parents I spoke with whose kids returned home after college working at the same job they could of had without a degree ending up thousands of dollars in debt because of it.

After all.. not everybody's little monkey is cutout to be the next Einstein.
