Strohm Dean, Internatioyial Correspondence Schools Any young man who Is planning a career In engineering must give consideraMon to the pay be may earn. A recent study allowed that the earning curve of engineers as a class continues upward to well past the age of 50, in sharp con trast to that of the artisan or technician whose earnings usually taper ott after 40, Incidentally, this upward trend also is common to most other professions, such as law and medicine. An effort has been made by the United States Civil Service Com mission to divide the various grades of engineering ability into eight bracke.ts, with annual com pensations ranging from $2,000 for the junior professional grade with duties under immediate supervision, to $9,000 or over for special ad ministrative work. Another study of salaries for engineering graduates conducted by the Society for the Promotion of Engineering Education showed a nrst-year salary of $1,475. After five years the salat y was $2,860, and then upward to about $7,500 thirty years after graduation. The highest ten per cent of this group reached salaries averaging $30,000. Never before have the oppor tunities in engineering been so great. Undor such circumstances there Is no question but that the field is an appealing and a promis ing one for the young man who has ability to work with people, ability to anaij’ze programs, good judg ment, good imagination and mechanical intuition.
