It gives estimates of salary and future demand for pretty much all occupations. Recommend this to your children to help them understand how their major selection could impact their future career.

- eulers_secret 7y agoThis is fun to look at! Computer and Information Technology Occupations: Computer Programmers: $86,550 Software Developers: $107,510 Web Developers: $73,760 I think the difference in pay is because they state Web Dev requires an associates degree, the other two a bachelor's. Of course, this data is generalized. I am an SWE, with an associates. I make a little more than their "Software Developer" role. Also suggests there may be a lot of devs who don't respond to salary threads.
