Some interesting salary data on various careers in Chemistry was recently reported in the New Scientist magazine.
Based on the Trends in Remuneration 2010 survey by the Royal Society of Chemistry, the data describes the median salary (independant of gender and age) in various chemistry sectors:
Oil and Allied Products have a clear lead with a median salary of £53,600
Pharmaceuticals and University careers are close behind with medians in the range £47,600 to £49,500
 |
| Pharmaceuticals - Big Money ! |
Consulting and the Nuclear industry are next on the list at £45,000
Plastics, the Water Industry, Government laboratories and the Food/Beverage Industry come in with medians in the range £39,300 to £42,000
 |
| Food and Beverage Industry - Not-Quite-So-Big Money |
Bottom of the list (although this is, of course, a relative term) are Schools, Research Institutes and Contract Research with medians in the range £34,400 to £36,000
