Yes, AI and Machine Learning (ML) graduates can expect strong starting salaries after graduation, though figures vary by country and experience level (as of August 2026 and subject to change):

- USA: Entry-level salaries typically range from $120,000 - $150,000/year. With experience, this can rise to $200,000 or more, especially in major tech hubs.
- Germany: Junior roles offer €55,000 - €75,000/year, with mid-level and senior positions reaching up to €140,000/year.
- Ireland: Graduate ML engineers earn €45,000 - €65,000/year, with senior roles potentially exceeding €130,000/year.

Actual salaries depend on company, location, and individual qualifications.
