From health care management to finance, MBA grads who are looking to earn competitive salaries, in growing career fields with low unemployment rates have a lot of options.

Another Columbia graduate took a $320,000 per year starting salary in consumer products. Meanwhile, a Stanford MBA saw the lowest reported compensation. The graduate had a base salary of $18,000 at a non-profit organization in Europe, according to Poets & Quants.
