What is the Average Starting SALARY of a Chemical Engineer ??

What is the Average starting salary of a Chemical Engineer ??

This is one Question which one or other day comes into the mind of
any Engineer persuing any Engineering that How much his starting salary would be ? Isn't it, And the answer to the above Question forms the basis of, Which Engineering stream people choose to do...!

However any Engineer has to face many problems at the starting of his career for eg. He would get a low starting salary as he may have the knowledge, but have no experience about how to apply it , Had to work for  maximum hours a day and many more. But Once the Fresher tag is removed and as the person gains Experience or Higher Education then the organizations from their side Offers good salaries.

Now talking about the average starting salary of a Chemical Engineer, Chemical Engineering continues to be the Best paid of all Engineering professions. Chemical Engineering graduates command the third highest average starting salary.

The National Association of Colleges and Employers( NACE ) reported that between 1999 - 2000 the average starting salary offer made to a Graduating Chemical Engineering student was approximately $49,418 with a Bachelor's degree.

The UK's Institution of Chemical Engineers in 2006 reported the
average starting salary for Chemical Engineering graduates was approximately £24,000 ( $30,170 ) , with an average salary for all Chemical Engineers of about £53,000 ( $66,626 ).

According to US Department of Labour in 2008 the median starting
salary for Chemical Engineers was approximately $67,420.

In 2010 National Association of Colleges and Employers reported that
the starting salary offer made to a Chemical Engineer was approximately $65,145 Whereas in 2011 the same increased to $66,886.

IN INDIA :

But however this is not the case of Chemical Engineers in India. The starting salary offered to a FRESHER Chemical Engineer is often 15,000 – 20,000 INR per month. But as soon as he gains experience the salary goes on increasing. For eg. After 10 years of experience he may also get 1,00,000 – 1,50,000 INR per month. And further more experience gets you even more salary. Also, In India according to National Salary Data in 2012 the Highest starting salary offered to a Chemical Engineer was 1,12,682 INR.

So from all the above statistical data we can say that students
persuing Chemical Engineering need not have to worry because if they excel in their academics they can surely earn very well...!!
