2. Electrical & Electronics Engineering (EEE)

Early Career Pay: $79,500
Mid-Career Pay: $129,000

3. Electrical Engineering (EE)

Early Career Pay: $79,900
Mid-Career Pay: $127,000

Electrical/Electronics engineering technology (EET) is an engineering technology field that implements and applies the principles of electrical engineering. Like electrical engineering, EET deals with the “design, application, installation, manufacturing, operation and/or maintenance of electrical/electronic(s) systems.” However, EET is a specialized discipline that has more focus on application, theory, and applied design, and implementation, while electrical engineering may focus more of a generalized emphasis on theory and conceptual design. Electrical/Electronic engineering technology is the largest branch of engineering technology and includes a diverse range of sub-disciplines, such as applied design, electronics, embedded systems, control systems, instrumentation, telecommunications, and power systems.

4. Technology Management

Technology management is a set of management disciplines that allows organizations to manage their technological fundamentals to create competitive advantage.

Early Career Pay: $65,900

5. Computer Engineering (CE)

Early Career Pay: $86,700
Mid-Career Pay: $125,000

Computer engineering is a discipline that integrates several fields of electrical engineering and computer science required to develop computer hardware and software. Computer engineers usually have training in electronic engineering (or electrical engineering), software design, and hardware-software integration instead of only software engineering or electronic engineering. Computer engineers are involved in many hardware and software aspects of computing, from the design of individual microcontrollers, microprocessors, personal computers, and supercomputers, to circuit design. This field of engineering not only focuses on how computer systems themselves work, but also how they integrate into the larger picture.

6. Computer Science (CS)

Early Career Pay: $84,800
Mid-Career Pay: $125,000

Computer science is the study of the theory, experimentation, and engineering that form the basis for the design and use of computers. It is the scientific and practical approach to computation and its applications and the systematic study of the feasibility, structure, expression, and mechanization of the methodical procedures (or algorithms) that underlie the acquisition, representation, processing, storage, communication of, and access to information. An alternate, more succinct definition of computer science is the study of automating algorithmic processes that scale. A computer scientist specializes in the theory of computation and the design of computational systems.

7. Electrical & Computer Engineering (ECE)

Early Career Pay: $82,000
Mid-Career Pay: $125,000

8. Software Engineering

Early Career Pay: $83,900
Mid-Career Pay: $119,000

Software engineering (SE) is the application of engineering to the development of software in a systematic method.

9. Information Systems (IS)

Early Career Pay: $67,800
Mid-Career Pay: $113,000

Information Systems is an academic study of systems with a specific reference to information and the complementary networks of hardware and software that people and organizations use to collect, filter, process, create and also distribute data. An emphasis is placed on an information system having a definitive boundary, users, processors, storage, inputs, outputs and the aforementioned communication networks.

10. Computer Information Systems (CIS)

Early Career Pay: $70,700
Mid-Career Pay: $110,000

Computer Information Systems is a degree that focuses on practical applications of technology to support organizations while adding value to their offerings. In order to apply technology effectively in this manner, a broad range of subjects are covered, such as communications, business, networking, software design, and mathematics. This degree encompasses the entirety of the Computing field and therefore is very useful when applying to computing positions of various sectors.
