Since we're still far from solving a problem like student loans, the pressure on college students to land high-paying careers after graduation continues to mount. So what majors are the best bet for making the big bucks?

According to Glassdoor Chief Economist Dr. Andrew Chamberlain [1], "If college students want to land a high-paying job after graduation, they should strongly consider majoring [2] in science, technology, engineering, or math. STEM majors are in demand by the technology and health industries, which offer higher paying jobs that are better protected from competition or automation."

What's more, many companies are actively seeking female employees [3] in an effort to diversify [4] these male-dominated industries. So, by landing a job in a STEM field you'd help close the gender pay gap and make serious bank? Get it, girl.

According to Glassdoor's findings, here are the 50 majors that will bring you the most cash down the line.
