Week 3 Homework

I plan on going to college, and as of now, I think I want to major in engineering.  A couple of jobs that are often paired with a major in engineering include an industrial engineer, design engineer, and civil engineer. Other than what I researched, I don't know much about these jobs. The lowest annual pay for an industrial engineer is about $51,000 while the highest annual pay is about $120,000, both of which are before taxes. Generally, industrial engineers are paid higher on the Pacific Coast and in southern states, and paid lower in the Midwest despite the fact that there are more industrial engineers employed in the Northern and Eastern states. The experience required ranges from 4 to 8 years at a university. . Almost all engineers must be resourceful, inquisitive, and cooperative and be critical thinkers. The average annual salary of a design engineer ranges from $50,000 to $90,000. I couldn't find anything on the salary of design engineers by location. Usually someone will graduate fro a 4 year university and then do an internship until they can land a job. A civil engineer is also usually paid $50,000 to $90,000 per year. They are usually paid the most near New England, in the Southern parts of the U.S., and in California and Alaska. These also happen to be the places where most civil engineers are employed. Usually people will attend a 4 year university and then take part in a graduate study to become a civil engineer.
