There are a lot statistics for Engineering and CS salaries. I believe the major factor is that while engineering/CS professor salaries have gone up at about the same rate as those in industry, the typical teaching load has more than dropped in half. Consequently, the cost of teaching a student has gone up to account for how universities are subsidizing research out of tuition. To some extent this problem is build into the system since NSF will not cover salaries during the academic year.
