Value of college degrees debated
(KTNV) -- The value of a college education is a hotly debated issue. But if you wonder what degrees are earning the most, a new report breaks it down.
The College Majors Handbook says Pre-Med grads topped the list with median pay of $100-thousand dollars. That's compared to a median salary pay of $54-thousand dollars for all majors with a full-time job in 2010.
Engineering, Pharmacy and Computer Science grads also did well. Regardless of the field of study, the handbook says the average employee with a bachelor's degree earned 80-percent more than someone with a high school diploma.
