Abstract :
You¿re a college senior, a few exams away from that engineering diploma, and you have to decide whether to take a job or go to graduate school. To choose wisely you must estimate the likely economic return on your investment. It¿s not an easy calculation. The details will differ from place to place, school to school, and person to person. To simplify things, we¿ll use average U.S. costs and benefits.
