NTU's 2011 grad earns $20,000 a month

[MarrickG]

THE top five earners from the Nanyang Technological University (NTU) Class of 2011 are drawing five-figure salaries, the highest being $20,000 a month.

Two-thirds of graduates have already found a job, according to a preliminary study conducted by the NTU's Career and Attachment Office. This is comparable to last year's graduating class during the same period in 2010.

A total 9,066 graduates will receive their degrees - the largest graduating class in the NTU's history - from Monday till Aug 1.

At the first convocation ceremony on Monday were President S R Nathan and Education Minister and Defence Minister Ng Eng Hen, both of whom were present to witness the inauguration of Professor Bertil Andersson as the university's third president.

How many fresh grads get to earn $20,000/per month, legally

Even the PAP doesn't pay that much for a local grad

Soon SMU will come out and show you ONE graduate earn 500k a month. Then NUS will come out with 500k+$1. This is starting to look so funny.

Sad to repeat the oft quoted " Lies, damned lies and STATISTICs".

 

[da dick]

2/3 of graduates is only 66.6% employment rate. poly and ITE grads higher than that lo.

national employment rate is still around 98%. that means getting that expensive paper makes you more unemployable than a stoner mat. but of course, most people working in singpipore are FTs/PRs.

Hired for 1 month at 20K to be scapegoat for some bigger agenda .
They did not mention those 100,000 not employed ?
