The outlook for the field of Project Management is extremely bright, especially in the IT and biotech fields.

This adaptability means that it is rare for opportunities in Project Management to dry up completely. For this reason, outlook in this field is ranked A.
Salaries for Project Manager positions vary widely across the nation and across industries, but the national average falls somewhere between $80,000 and $100,000.
