These colleges and majors can earn you the highest salaries

If you're seeking to get the most bang for your buck out of college, consider these schools — and majors — that generally yield the highest salaries for graduates, according to a new report from salary data provider Payscale.

For its College Salary Report, Payscale analyzed data, including education and employment histories, of more than 3 million college graduates to rank schools and majors based on future salaries degree-holders earn. The new ranking demonstrates that graduates of certain institutions command higher pay on average than those of others.

Bachelor's degree holders from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Princeton University command the highest salaries, according to the report. MIT grads earn an average mid-career salary of $196,900, while Princeton grads command average paychecks of $194,100. In third place, United States Naval Academy graduates earn $187,800 on average. Four Ivy League schools made the top 10.
