Program Analysis
Drury University-College of Continuing Professional Studies's Sociology program produces graduates earning $35,881/yr — within striking distance of the $34,392 national average for this field.
The 14.1x earnings multiple means ten-year projected earnings exceed tuition cost by an order of magnitude. By pure financial math, this is a standout.
AI risk is moderate — 42% task exposure — and the 4% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.
The $29,000 debt-to-$35,881 income ratio translates to about 10 months of earnings. Standard loan terms should handle this comfortably.
Ranked #195 out of 414 programs, Drury University-College of Continuing Professional Studies's Sociology offering sits in the upper half but doesn't break into the top tier.
Earnings growth is modest: $35,881 to $39,909 over five years (11% gain). This field may have a lower salary ceiling than high-growth professions.
