How good is Cal Poly SLO for engineering and getting high paying jobs after graduation? For example, I have heard that Cal Poly graduates make more money than UCLA and the majority of UC schools, besides UC Berkley. Will engineering firms recognize Cal Poly as the amazing engineering school it is or blow it off as not as good just because it is a CSU school. How successful are Cal Poly Engineering graduates after graduation? Thanks for reading all that.
Here are some career surveys by major. Beware that survey and reporting methodology may vary between schools, so use caution when comparing different schools.
