While future earning potential is no match for personal fulfillment, those on the fence might want to take a look at data compiled by Open Colleges, an online career development community.
According to their findings, average starting salaries for business majors increased by 7.1 percent from $50,633 in 2012 to $54,234 in 2013. The data also shows that engineering fields dominate the ranks of the highest-paid careers. Sadly though, many of the Class of 2010's graduates ended up finding work in low-wage, non-degree fields such as food service and retail sales.
