Program Analysis
At $41,362/yr, Special Education and Teaching graduates from Ohio University-Eastern Campus land near the $44,105 national average — neither a standout nor a red flag.
The 19.4x 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 — 44% task exposure — and the 3% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.
The $26,950 debt-to-$41,362 income ratio translates to about 8 months of earnings. Standard loan terms should handle this comfortably.
Ranked #58 out of 170 programs, Ohio University-Eastern Campus's Special Education and Teaching offering sits in the upper half but doesn't break into the top tier.
Earnings growth is modest: $41,362 to $46,532 over five years (12% gain). This field may have a lower salary ceiling than high-growth professions.
