Emolument analysed the incomes from over 5,000 European graduates. Looking at the salaries of those with five to ten years experience they provide an interesting top 30.
More precisely: studying in Switzerland would provide the highest salary. The four institutions that can reward thisare all within Swiss borders. Not coincidentally, since the cost to live there is rather high (about 40% higher than in the Netherlands).
Graduate at the highest paid university in Europe, the Swiss University of St.Gallen, can earn an average of 185,000 Euros per year.
Tilburg and Rotterdam
One does not necessarily need to study in Switzerland to earn a lot. A qualification from the UK (although one can have doubts to study there after the Brexit outcome), or from France,or the Netherlands is good too.
For those whohave beenworking five to ten years, they can have the best salary if they study at Tilburg University (median = 82,000 euros), Rotterdam School of Management (76,000 euros) and Erasmus University Rotterdam (EUR 75,000). Less fortunateare those who study at the University of Amsterdam (47,000 euros) or Maastricht University (52,000 euros).
Study Makes a BigDifference
The differences between studies are quite large. So it is beneficial to study in Tilburg Financial Services, and less advantageous to do Finance Control & Strategy. In Maastricht, students would be relatively well off in a study of Sales & Business Development.
In the full list of colleges one can look up the twelve largest Dutch universities, and corresponding salaries associated with the different types of certificates.
Technical or Economic Study Provides the Most
What also stands out is the kind of studies that are doing well. These are mainly technical and economic studies.
Thus, the “winning” University of St. Gallen offers almost only business studies, such as accountancy, business management and economics. Furthermore, good salary “makers” are: the London School of Economics, London Business School, Business School ESLSCA and Tanaka Business School.
For a good-paying technical training, one can choose the French Ecole des Ponts Paris Tech,or Ecole Polytechnique.
