ADDITIONAL DATA AVAILABLE ONLINE: Additional data are available to NACE members and Salary Survey subscribers through the Salary Survey Online tool (www.naceweb.org/salary-resources/salary-survey-online.aspx). Featuring data updated monthly, the tool provides in-depth national and regional salary data for new college graduates by industry. HOW TO READ SALARY SURVEY (Page Key: Bachelor s/master s) STARTING SALARY BY ACADEMIC MAJOR... PG. 9/58 In this section, you will find the average starting salary according to the major field of study, with no regard to the type of position or type of employer reporting the salary. Refer to this section when you want to know the starting salary for a graduate holding a degree in a specific discipline, such as accounting or computer science. TOP INDUSTRIES INDIVIDUAL MAJORS... PG. 13/59 This section shows data first by the major field of study, then by the type of employer (industry) reporting the salaries. Employer types are listed in descending order by number of reported new graduate entrants. See this section when you want the average starting salary reported by a specific type of employer to a graduate earning a degree in a specific major. This section may also be particularly helpful in examining the employer types that hire the most new graduates of a particular major. (Example: Average salary that manufacturing firms are reporting for electrical engineering graduates. Also, the other industries that are hiring the most electrical engineering graduates and their corresponding average salaries.) TOP MAJORS INDIVIDUAL INDUSTRIES... PG. 23/64 This section contains the same basic information as Top Industries/Individual Majors, but in a different order. You will see data by a specific type of employer (industry), then according to the average salary by major field of study. Majors are listed in descending order by number of reported new grad entrants. Use this section to find the average starting salary reported by a specific type of employer to a graduate in a specific major and to identify which majors were most hired into a specific industry. (Example: Majors hired by construction firms, and their corresponding average starting salaries.) MAJOR BY OCCUPATIONAL POSITION INDUSTRY... PG. 31/67 This section shows data first by the major field of study, then according to the employers (industries) that reported specific occupational positions and their corresponding average salaries. Industries and occupational positions are both listed in alphabetical order. Use this section when you need information about the average salary for a graduate with a specific major for a specific occupational position. (Example: Average starting salary for an economics graduate hired in the banking industry performing as a financial manager.) 4 Salary Survey

OCCUPATIONAL POSITION BY MAJOR INDUSTRY... PG. 44/73 This section contains the same information as Major by Occupational Position/Industry, but with the data rearranged. It first shows data by occupational position, then by the employers (industries) that hired specific majors. Industries and majors are both listed in alphabetical order. See this section when you need to know the average starting salary for a specific occupational position held by a graduate with a certain major. (Example: Average starting salary for an elementary or middle school teacher who majored in mathematics.) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The overall average starting salary for Class of 2013 graduates has increased 2.6 percent to $45,633 from the final overall average of $44,482 for the Class of 2012. The current overall average starting salary is buoyed by the 2.9 percent increase to humanities and social sciences majors average salary and the 2.3 percent bump to the average salary of business majors. Average salaries within the other broad categories of disciplines remain essentially flat, with some groups even slipping a little from last year albeit by decreases of less than 1 percent. (See Figure 1.) FIGURE 1 AVERAGE SALARIES BY DISCIPLINE Broad Category 2013 Average Salary 2012 Average Salary Percent Change Business $55,144 $53,900 2.3% Communications $44,552 $43,717 1.9% Computer Science $59,084 $59,221-0.2% Education $40,590 $40,668-0.2% Engineering $62,564 $62,655-0.1% Humanities & Social Sciences $38,045 $36,988 2.9% Math & Sciences $42,956 $42,471 1.1% Overall $45,633 $44,482 2.6% BUSINESS Business majors had one of the higher increases to the overall average salary 2.3 percent to bring their average starting salary to $55,144. All the individual business majors also had increases in salary, except hospitality services management, whose salary decreased by 0.2 percent. International business majors, whose average starting salary rose 3.8 percent to $46,900, had the largest increase of the group, however, management information systems majors earn the highest average salary $60,700. COMMUNICATIONS The overall average salary for communications graduates rose almost 2 percent to $44,552. In addition, all three specific fields within this category received increases to their individual average starting salaries: advertising, 1.9 percent to $48,100; communications, 1.8 percent to $45,300; and journalism, 2.4 percent to $41,900. COMPUTER SCIENCES In the September 2013 issue of Salary Survey, computer science graduates (as a group) were the only ones to lose ground when their overall average starting salary decreased by 2.5 percent. While this issue reports another decrease for these graduates, it was only a 0.2 percent drop to $59,084. Specific computer science graduates even saw an increase of 0.5 percent, bringing their starting salary to $64,700. EDUCATION Like computer science majors, education graduates saw a decrease of 0.2 percent to their overall average Salary Survey 5

However, all but one individual education discipline posted increases in starting salaries, with special education majors earning the highest average salary of $46,000. ENGINEERING Starting salaries for engineering majors barely moved from last year s average of $62,655 to $62,564 this year, a decrease of just 0.1 percent. And, like most of the other categories of majors in this report, starting salaries within the reported engineering disciplines increased across the board. The average starting salary for mechanical engineering graduates climbed 2.5 percent to $64,500, the highest increase among this group. Meanwhile, the top-paid engineering degree continues to be petroleum engineering, with a current average starting salary of $97,000. HEALTH SCIENCES Within the health sciences, nursing graduates saw their average starting salary rise to $52,800, an increase of just slightly more than 1 percent. Throughout the 2013 reporting year, nursing salaries have remained near $52,000. HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCES With their 2.9 percent increase, humanities and social sciences graduates overall average salary rose from an average of $36,988 last year to $38,045 this year. Most of the individual majors had increases in the 1 to 2 percent range, however, visual and performing arts majors posted a 5.9 percent increase to their average starting salary, bringing it to $35,800. This increase may be due to the industries and positions reported for these particular graduates: Professional, scientific, and technical services employers reported a large number of salaries, averaging $36,200. And, the toppaying positions reported for these students were sales and marketing positions, with an average salary of $59,900. MATHEMATICS AND SCIENCES Students graduating with math and science degrees saw an overall increase in line with the other categories in this report. Collectively, the average starting salary rose 1.1 percent to $42,956. Mathematics majors posted an increase of 1.8 percent to their average starting salary, bringing it to $50,200. Chemistry majors, on the other hand, saw their average salary decrease by 0.4 percent to $45,300. And, while construction science/ management majors received a slight 0.5 percent increase, they are the highest-paid of these particular disciplines with an average starting salary of $56,900. The first look at salaries for the Class of 2014 will appear in the next issue of Salary Survey, which will be published in April 2014. *Not currently available. 6 Salary Survey
