Program Analysis

First-year earnings of $49,541 track close to the $50,797 national median for Mathematics programs. This is a middle-of-the-road outcome on salary alone.

The earnings-to-cost ratio of 7.6x signals a solid financial return — projected decade earnings comfortably exceed the tuition investment.

Some AI exposure exists in Mathematics's typical career paths, with 65% of job tasks potentially affected. The pessimistic scenario still projects solid returns, with a 9% gap from the optimistic case.

At $17,945 in median debt against $49,541 in first-year earnings, graduates can expect to clear their loan balance in under six months of full earnings.

Ranked #199 of 253 Mathematics programs, Miami University-Oxford falls below the median. Stronger options exist, though cost and location may compensate.
