ported that the committee compiled
statistics on offers to master’s-
degree candidates. A pilot study
has been made in 1961-62.
The biggest average boost on
the master’s list was to electrical
engineers. Their offers jumped
by $25 to $736 monthly. Follow
ing were business administration
students with technical undergrad
uate degrees, up $19 to $675, and
physicists, up $18 to $693.
THE TOP demand for students
completing their bachelor’s de
gree was reported in these fields:
electrical engineering, first, fol
lowed by mechanical engineering,
accounting, chemical engineering
and general business.
Aeroixautical engineering led in
dollar value with paychecks aver
aging $36 a month more than a
year ago. Indications were that
offers were fewer simply because
demand so far exceeded supply.
Paychecks averaging $599 were
offered by ah'craft and aerospace
manufacturers.
Horsley said the study showed
seniors in several other engineer
ing curricula are faring almost as
well in beginning salary offers.
Industrial engineers are up $35 a
month, and electrical engineers up
$33 a month.
In the non-technical cundcula,
liberal arts led in dollar value with
$511, followed by accounting with
$504 and general business with
$487. Accounting continued on top
in number of offers.
