<p>What do college interns typically make in the tech sector? I'm thinking computer software/hardware engineering specifically -- I know it can get pretty high for IT depending on where one works.</p>
<p>$12/hr, $15/hr. Pfizer pays $18/hr for IT interns. Don't count on IT being THAT much. Goldman Sachs pays $14K - 4K taxes for a summer's worth of IT, although you may make double being at Oracle.</p>
<p>You can get upper 20s at large EE companies.</p>
<p>whoa...upper 20's for college interns....isnt that too much....</p>
<p>and wolfy well 12 and 15 are bygones....i mean atleast at WPI i have seen that the average rate for interns (CS ones) is $19.5.....</p>
<p>Data Architect with Fidelity Brokerage Company Technology at Fidelity Investments
$20/hr for a rising senior</p>
<p>I can confirm the high 20's statement for companies in silicon valley.</p>
<p>^^ Can you give me names?...It will be helpful for me as I am a CS major who would be looking for good internships in due time...</p>
<p>Nvidia, Intel, IBM for sure have offers in the high 20's</p>
<p>in that case how much are starting salaries for nvidia intel and ibm</p>
<p>I am a technical marketing engineer at Intel Corp in Hillsboro, that pays $17/hr, I would get around 20-23/hr but I am going for a nontechnical degree (Business) thus I get less. Oh well</p>
<p>o dang u get paid more for tech degrees.. what are those just engineering></p>
<p>Well why companies want to hire interns is to eventually bring them onboard as a full employee. Hiring costs a lot of money, especially for good talent, therefore if they can lure some through internships, it is an advantage for both parties.</p>
<p>I'm getting 15$/hr + 3 days paid vacation (discretionary over the 10 weeks) at NASA Goddard as a rising freshman. Pay goes quite a bit higher, based on class level - I know a few top rising juniors with offers ~$27.</p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>27 dang thats good....</p>
<p>petroleum engr interns are making 4000-5000 per month with relocation bonuses ..that would be about 25-30 $/hr</p>
<p>if you're looking long term engineering i'd suggest co-op. i'll be at NASA-Marshall this fall making over $12/hr. with full benefits (including being able to start a 401K), paid federal holidays, and earned time off. i get a raise each semester i go back they're offering to help pay for my classes and depending on the budget when i graduate will more than likely offer me a job when i graduate. this is all after finishing just my first year of an engineering degree.</p>
<p>are you more attractive to employers if you double major in say Business Admin and Finance rather than just one?</p>
<p>No. At that point, individual ability kicks in.</p>
<p>Just one of those is proving your ability and focus in business. There's no real reason to have both, especially since each is less important than the MBA down the road.</p>
<p>As long as you did well, interview well, and show strong capacity for learning, you could have a major in archeology for all some companies care (Do note that I'm talking about most business jobs, there are a few exceptions, I've found this to mostly be the case; Also, I'm certainly NOT talking about a technical position, such as engineering or whatnot which requires a tech degree).</p>
<p>It's a bit less traditional, but it happens often enough.</p>
<p>rty456 -which companies are these petroleum engineering interns working in?</p>
