Completely useless article and shoddy journalism from CNBC.
For some overlap from the same site, look at this link:
https://www.cnbc.com/2019/07/18/the-top-10-public-us-colleges-that-pay-off-the-most.html
Based on the link above, the salary figures quoted in the OP link are not for engineering majors, but for ALL majors from that university. Coastal salaries are higher than the center of the country. Engineering salaries are higher than most other majors. Some engineering salaries are a lot higher than others too. Tech oriented schools always have higher salaries than general universities at the same level.
Some public universities (e.g. Michigan) give generous FA to OOS students. Some (GT,CA schools) give none. Some (GT) have almost completely free tuition to Georgia residents who (a) had qualifications to be admitted and (b) maintained a high GPA through college regardless of income.
Clickbait.
