Julie Cunningham, director of the Engineering Career Services Center, said that companies recruiting at the engineering school had increased 30 percent from last year.
Continued from p.1
"There's an increased confidence on the part of employers that they will have jobs available," she said. "There is a difference in the economic stems from economic factors."
"There aren't really any (areas) on the decrease, and I'm happy to report that because two or threeago things were looking bleak."
Leading the influx is General Motors Corp., making its first appearance on campus since spring 1986.
"A lot of oil companies are back on campus, and a lot of chemical companies seem to have an increased demand," Cunningham said.
Cunningham said that electrical and mechanical engineering remained strong and that chemical engineering were making a comeback.
In addition to an increase in the number of recruiters, the number of on-campus interviews has increased 33 percent. Cunningham said.
"With civil engineers, it's real clear what's happening," she said. "Back about 35 years ago, when they started building the interstate highway system, building bridges and tunnels, with the transportation hired a lot of civil engineers. Those people are now retiring at the same time our highways."
Starting salary best for pharmacy grads
Pharmacy graduates lead the list for starting salaries, and accounting graduates recorded the largest salary gain.
By a Kansan reporter
According to a salary survey compiled by the College Placement Council of Bethlehem, Pa., graduates with pharmacy degrees last year were offered an average starting salary of $34.56 a year.
Last year's biggest increase was in accounting salaries, up 10 percent to an average of $24,000. Dawen Oberman, coordinator of the salary, said it was the largest salary increase she could remember.
Oberman also said that petroleum engineering made a comeback after decreasing 6.6 percent last year.
way system needs a lot of work.
"The state departments of transportation have a very large need for civil engineers."
Julie Cunningham, director of KU's Engineering Career Services Center, said, "Salaries are increasing even though the job market has been down the past two years. I think we're looking at a bigger jump. This year I should expect to see a 3 to 5 percent increase because of increased demand."
Fred Madaua, director of the School of Business placement center, said that companies did not use credit with a fixed percentage increase.
Cunningham *also* said that although demand for petroleum engineers had increased, it wasn't cost-effective for employers to recruit on campuses because interest in petroleum engineering courses had dwindled.
Madaus, director of the School of Business Placement Center, said the center had the most calls for accounting and field sales.
Madaus said. "The accounting student has both the public accounting market and the private accounting, internal audit and so forth.
"The student who is willing to go out and look at field sales position has excellent opportunity because everybody is selling something. Any of those people like a college degree. Not necessarily a business degree, but a college degree."
"Accounting is always good,"
Madaus said that recruiting at the business school had increased about 10 percent but that banking interviews had decreased.
Two from KU enter pageant
By Craig Welch Kansan staff writer
Two KU students will be participating in the 1988-89 Miss Kansas U.S.A. pageant Saturday in Hutchinson, Mo., for one of the program said yesterday.
Larry McKellips, director of the state pageant, said he had personally picked Peggy Cobb, Wichita junior, and Tracy Schildhauer, Lenexa freshman, to be among the 25 women who will compete for the title of Miss Kansas U.S.A.
The event will be at 7:30 p.m.
Saturday at the Hutchinson Convention Center.
"All the girls were ones that I
knew or ones that were referred to me," she McKellips said. "I wanted every girl to have some experience in pageants."
McKellips said Cobb was named Miss Wichita and was a runner up at Miss Kansas America in 1987. She was named to the roster up at Miss Kansas U. A., in 1985.
The three areas of competition in the pageant will be the swimsuit, interview, and evening gown. Each participant will receive a swimsuit and various other prizes. The pageant will also include cash, a full-ride scholarship to Wichita Business School, a wardrobe from Dillards and a trip to the
national competition in Mobile, Ala., in February.
"My focus was to let every girl have a good time and feel like they gained something," McKellips said.
Cobb, whose sister was Miss Kansas America in 1984, said that she enjoyed participating in pageants.
"I originally got involved as a favor to a friend," she said. "But once I was in, I caught the pageant bug and I was hooked."
Cobb said this particular pageant attracted her because it did not have a talent competition.
