Program Analysis
At $38,102/yr, Public Health graduates from Utah Valley University land near the $38,916 national average — neither a standout nor a red flag.
The 17.7x 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 — 48% task exposure — and the 3% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.
The median debt load of $14,415 represents less than half a year of starting salary — among the lightest debt-to-income ratios we track.
Ranked #91 out of 213 programs, Utah Valley University's Public Health offering sits in the upper half but doesn't break into the top tier.
Earnings growth is modest: $38,102 to $39,508 over five years (4% gain). This field may have a lower salary ceiling than high-growth professions.
