One-year earnings ranges across five bachelor’s fields
A broader-field benchmark that shows the middle 50% of institution-level median earnings rather than a single headline number.
Compare one-year earnings context for bachelor’s graduates in Computer Science, Elementary Education, Finance, Mechanical Engineering, and Psychology. Use a range ribbon with the 25th percentile, median, and 75th percentile, and explain the broader CIP-4 outcome grain.
The displayed midpoint is highest for Mechanical Engineering at $65,146, followed by Computer Science. Psychology and Elementary Education are lower in this one-year post-completion context.
These are national College Scorecard benchmarks aggregated from institution-level, broader CIP-4 outcome cohorts. They are context for a field, not a placement rate or a prediction for a named program, student, or institution.
