Computer Engineering Degree Most Valuable

Anonymous Squonk writes "CNN reports on the National Association of Colleges and Employers quarterly salary survey. Computer Engineering degree holders once again command the highest starting salaries at an average of $53,117, but Chemical Engineering is gaining rapidly, and Computer Science graduate's salaries are up 8.9% over the year before. Most of the other geek disciplines rank high on the list as well." While starting salaries for some degrees are up, the overall situation is not very good - indeed, your salary may be decreasing.

    The 35 hours is an averge including the 9+ weeks a year they get off, and is beased on a 45hour work week while they are working.

    Many teachers use the same lesson plans year after year (if you teach math does it really change) they use their 5 hours a week planning time to make slight adjustments.
