It's funny you say that. My co-owner's wife (acft content) works for
the fundraising foundation of a large university, and teaching
engineering pays rather well these days. The US seems to be in a
business mode of "hire engineer, develop product, fire engineer,
repeat..." that makes teaching lucrative.

I was shocked at what some engineering professors make!
