It's time for me to pick a senior design project (senior in EE) and my choices are either a wireless robot made to pick up cans or a report on network security containing current exploits, how to use them, etc.

The latter is more interesting to me, but it's got me to thinking: Do network security specialists really get paid big money? That's what this professor claims, but it all seems like glorified "IT guy" stuff.

So is there really a big demand for so called network security specialists with engineering degrees or is it kind of a niche career that most companies aren't going to pay you an engineer's salary for?
