Highest Paying Careers for Women
Salary data from PayScale.com.
Kristina Cowan | Payscale.com
Three seem to be three easily identifiable stages within modern women’s entrance into (and overtaking of) the world job market. First, women were to nurse and teach – not an absolute victory, because many men were not interested in working such jobs, but a victory nonetheless. Next, women were allowed to work in pretty much any career men worked in, except for lower pay, fewer benefits, and less job stability.
But now, there are female astronauts, business executives, lawyers, doctors, and politicians – who not only work in these fields, but are compensated for their hard work fairly. Which fields are most lucrative, and why (besides a fat paycheck) should women consider them? Career experts Susan Wilson Solovic , Dr. Laurence Shatkin and Dr. Warren Farrell weigh in on the best-paying careers for women:
| 1. Careers in Medicine |
| 2. Careers in Information Technology |
| 3. Careers in Law |
| 4. Careers in Sales Engineering |
| 5. Careers in Financial Services & Investment Counselors |

I think we need more women to enter into the Engineering field (mechanical, civil, electrical) I just graduated with a degree in civil engineering and there was only a handful of female graduates.

I definitely would like to obtain a degree in IT but I don't want to spend years studying for that degree either. I can do up to 2 years but no more than that. Does anyone have any ideas for a good school offering this type of training and job placement?

IT field is really a booming job for womens right now. There are so many ways to working if you're on IT, offline and online as ColoradoMomma said above. :D Even you can create and establish values yourself. I wanted to mastering IT, but I still can't since I don't ready yet to colaborate study with career. Maybe later.

I agree that a career in medicine is one of the top paying jobs because there is always a demand for jobs in that field. I have a few people in my family that are in the medical field. When I was younger I wanted to become a pediatrician but as the years passed I became interested in Accounting and Information Systems and Income Taxes. I believe with my background I could also get a job in IT as well. I have my associate's in accounting and am currently working on my bachelors in business management and I also plan on getting my master's as well. Women can do anything they put their minds too! To all my strong, independant, hard-working women...the sky is the limit!!!

There are even more upsides to the IT field - particularly for women. It's easy to have a home-based IT business, particularly if you are doing consulting and/or contract work. In certain IT fields, ITSers can often work from home just as much as from the office. I myself am considering starting a home-based business in web design, and expect to be doing much of my work over the phone and through e-mail, with less face-to-face time with clients than in a typical office setting. I'll also be able to offer services nationally, while still being based out of my home. The IT field is also easier to access and get training in than perhaps even the medical field (particularly the school heavy doctor's degrees). There are numerous online degrees and certificates available, plus most community colleges offer online, evening, and weekend classes and seminars in IT areas and computer programs!
