What is the starting salary of a civil and mechanical engineer in the uk?
Answers:
20k seems to be the starting salary. Although once you have gained about 5 years experience you can work on a contract basis and earn about £300 a day! I would highly recommend trying to get into the rail industry in the UK, especially on the civils side. With the olympic games coming up there is going to be a lot of work for you :)
It depends on a number of factors. How well qualified you are, how much experience you have, the size of the firm you are working for.
I have MSc BEng LLB MIQA MIAQP with 20 years experience in mechanical and aeronautical engineering.
Personally I won't get out of bed for less than £35,000 p/a. as a starting salary.
If you are a recent graduate with say, MEng then a fair starting salary would go from about £18,000 p/a.
Hope this helps as a guide.
Good luck
