It's hard to pick the right college major. For those who don't know what to do with their careers, it may help to pick the major with the biggest paycheck.

Using data that OneClass compiled from Payscale, we found the 25 college majors with the highest average mid-career salaries. We also noted early career salaries, possible careers with that major, and a "high meaning" rating, based on the percentage of workers who said their jobs made the world a better place. Graduate school degrees were excluded, so most well-paying bachelor's degree holders are engineers.

You may find your major or career on this list. Or, if you're still deciding on a major, you may find one that's right for you.
