Abstract	Statistics for 33,902 of 1971 engineering graduates were used to describe job prospects of the graduates. Findings include: (1) engineering graduates were largely successful in finding jobs or carrying out other plans; (2) about one out of every five engineering graduates at the bachelor's and master's degree levels had plans to continue full-time study; (3) the number of bachelor's degree graduates entering military service increased in 1971 to 14 percent--the highest since 1958; (4) at all levels except the doctorate, salary offers averaged slightly higher than in 1970, ranging from $632 per month to $1340; (5) salaries for chemical engineering were highest and civil engineering lowest at all three degree levels; (6) the average salary for women engineering graduates at the bachelor's level was a bit higher than the overall average for male engineers; and (7) compared to graduates in other disciplines, the prospects of engineers were outstanding.
