Program Analysis

Graduates earn $60,236/yr, edging above the $53,330 national average for Business/Managerial Economics — a modest premium that suggests solid regional demand.

The 24.6x 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 — 53% task exposure — and the 12% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.

At $21,000 in median debt against $60,236 in first-year earnings, graduates can expect to clear their loan balance in under six months of full earnings.

Ranked #36 out of 81 programs, Ohio University-Chillicothe Campus's Business/Managerial Economics offering sits in the upper half but doesn't break into the top tier.
