Program Analysis

Graduates earn $36,059/yr, edging above the $32,455 national average for Neurobiology and Neurosciences — a modest premium that suggests solid regional demand.

An earnings multiple of 2.2x means the program roughly breaks even in financial terms over ten years. Non-financial factors need to justify the investment.

AI risk is moderate — 48% task exposure — and the 3% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.

The $27,000 debt-to-$36,059 income ratio translates to about 9 months of earnings. Standard loan terms should handle this comfortably.

At #67 out of 97 programs, University of St Thomas's financial outcomes for Neurobiology and Neurosciences trail the majority of peers. The value case depends on other factors.
