I'm considering becoming a computer engineer and i was just wondering how much they make.
That's like asking "how fast does a car go?" You need to know what kind of car it is, who is driving, what the road conditions are, etc. Computer engineers can make vastly different amounts depending on the company they work for, years of experience, what technologies they know, where they live, etc. I hope they teach her in school about defining requirements.
@byoung2: As a freshman in a public high school in South Boston, it's unlikely that she is familiar with the variety of conditions you're talking about. Also, frankly, it's hard to say whether the teachers in her school are getting her the type of communications guidance you're talking about. I think your point would be valuable for her to hear. Are you comfortable if I post your car analogy on the site for her to read?
