Program Analysis
At $39,810 per year, Biology graduates from CUNY Medgar Evers College earn slightly above the $32,219 national median. The premium is real but not dramatic.
With a 18.0x return on in-state tuition over ten years, the financial case for this program is compelling by virtually any measure.
The 7% difference between AI scenarios reflects partial automation exposure. Some Biology career paths face displacement, but others in the field are more insulated.
The median debt load of $11,000 represents less than half a year of starting salary — among the lightest debt-to-income ratios we track.
At #57 of 822 programs, this Biology program outperforms the majority of its peers. The top 10% ranking reflects consistently above-average outcomes.
A 35% earnings increase from $39,810 to $53,711 over five years is solid — not a moonshot, but evidence of normal career advancement.
