This paper examines the effect of science education during the high school education how science graduates of universities are evaluated in the labor market. We conducted two online research projects and studied the subjects they were good, the size of companies where initially employed, employment status, and current income. The results show that among science graduates, workers adept at physics tend to have higher incomes compared to workers good at other subjects. Generational analysis based on the curriculum guideline amendments shows that the generational gap is small among science majors who are good at physics.
