Program Analysis

New England Institute of Technology's Electrical Engineering Technology graduates start at $70,647/yr — above the $67,106 national average, though not by a wide margin.

The 5.0x return on tuition is positive but not overwhelming. Financial outcomes depend on keeping costs close to in-state rates.

AI risk is moderate — 41% task exposure — and the 13% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.

Loan repayment is a non-issue here — $27,667 in median debt clears quickly against $70,647 in annual earnings.

At #36 out of 46 programs, New England Institute of Technology's financial outcomes for Electrical Engineering Technology trail the majority of peers. The value case depends on other factors.

The five-year earnings trajectory from $70,647 to $89,857 shows 27% growth, reflecting steady but unremarkable salary progression.
