Technical majors remained the highest paid among the class of 2020 grads earning bachelor’s degrees.

The average starting salary for new college graduates for the class of 2020 was $55,260, according to research from the National Association of Colleges and Employers.

“In some cases, salary increases most likely reflect these unique times,” NACE Executive Director Shawn VanDerziel said. “For example, the increased demand for nurses as frontline workers during the Covid-19 pandemic may have fueled the 2.1% increase in the average starting salary for registered nursing majors, from $57,416 for these graduates from the Class of 2019 to $58,626 for Class of 2020 registered nursing graduates.”
