Program Analysis

At $61,702/yr, Statistics graduates from Miami University-Oxford land near the $63,187 national average — neither a standout nor a red flag.

At 8.9x the cost of in-state tuition, the ten-year earnings outlook represents a strong return. Not exceptional, but meaningfully positive.

AI risk is moderate — 64% task exposure — and the 15% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.

The median debt load of $23,875 represents less than half a year of starting salary — among the lightest debt-to-income ratios we track.
