At $25,577 in median debt against $66,591 in first-year earnings, graduates can expect to clear their loan balance in under six months of full earnings.
Ranked #14 out of 48 programs, Ohio University-Main Campus's Industrial Production Technology offering sits in the upper half but doesn't break into the top tier.
The five-year earnings trajectory from $66,591 to $84,701 shows 27% growth, reflecting steady but unremarkable salary progression.
