High Paying Careers for a Luxury Lifestyle

The 5 most valuable industries for landing a high-paying job

Tuition costs are on the rise yet again! So what’s an uncertain, first year college or university student to do when it comes to choosing a career path—especially one that will reap the monetary rewards worthy of the price of the degree?

Especially considering that in this rapidly changing job landscape, a student might start their student life with a college major that promises a high-paying job; only to end it their student career with a degree that doesn’t amount to much on the salary front. 

However, there are a few career paths that you can count on to set you up for monetary success in the form of high earnings. For example, focus on a college or university diploma where you are learning relevant skills via coursework as well as internships—one where you are likely to land you a well-paying job directly out of school, such as with engineering, science, and math-focused roles.

Here are the top five high paying careers for a luxury lifestyle…

1. Biomedical engineering

Jobs in the field of biomedical engineering are well worth the tuition costs, as well as the time and effort devoted to complete the training considering that a biomedical engineer can begin their career earning a starting salary of approximately $54,000 USD. Not only that, but that salary will almost double to $97,000 once you reach the prime of your career. Plus, there is no lack of job opportunities for bio-med engineers with a job growth percentage of almost 62% last year.

2. Science

The same goes for students of biochemistry and physics can also count on being recruited by high tech companies, laboratories, and urology jobs, offeringhigh salaries and throwing tempting job offers at their feet.

3. General engineering

Another valuable career path is engineering in general—you can choose your poison from the IT set (software engineers) who earn about $88,000 mid-career, the green set (environmental engineers) who earn about $87,000 a year, and the planning set (civil engineers) who boast an average salary of $90,000 by the time they peak in their careers.

4. Computer information systems

Not only are computer information systems students top recruits as far as job prospects—so you can be prepared to call the shots and field multiple offers and high salaries upon graduation.

5. Math jobs

Students who concentrate on math—in roles such as computer science, applied mathematics, and statistics (basically any role that studies consumer behavior, user demographics, or forecasts buying trends) will always be in demand and paid very well.
