I think it's mostly software-specific, plus certain kinds of engineering. I've known many science PhDs (or several years post-masters) who struggle to find work paying $50k.

Civil Engineering is the poor sister of the engineering biz, but if you're willing to get cold and muddy, you should be able to start for $60k to $80k with a BS and no experience, depending on location.

I’ve heard the same from friends of mine with programming and engineering jobs. Degrees along those lines are just about the only thing I would encourage my kids to go to college for.

Hi there! Hiring manager for an open MechE position. I'm paying between $74K-$88K for somebody (ideally) with 2-5 years experience*. I'm getting resumes from 20 year guys. Lot of unemployment in the STEM right now. *We are kind of notoriously cheap, though.

Generic bio is what's overinflated. Some but not enormous demand, and bio degrees have gone up a lot in the last few decades. https://nces.ed.gov/programs/digest/d20/tables/dt20_322.10.asp …

Well, I couldn't get a BS in CS because I already got a BA in History (CA state colleges won't let you get a 2nd Bachelor's). Can anyone tell me if I should stop now and just go back to manual labor? I just started on the actual graduate courses.

I double majored History and CS (only one BS)
