Program Analysis
First-year earnings of $62,447 track close to the $65,727 national median for Clinical Laboratory Science programs. This is a middle-of-the-road outcome on salary alone.
The 25.9x 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 — 24% task exposure — and the 7% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.
At $15,183 in median debt against $62,447 in first-year earnings, graduates can expect to clear their loan balance in under six months of full earnings.
Ranked #12 out of 99 programs, Georgia Southern University's Clinical Laboratory Science program lands in the top 5% — a strong signal of graduate success.
Earnings growth is modest: $62,447 to $70,709 over five years (13% gain). This field may have a lower salary ceiling than high-growth professions.
