U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard, field-of-study data (programs by 4-digit CIP code). Earnings are the median for graduates who received federal aid, working and not enrolled, measured 1 and 4 years after completion. Net price is what a full-time first-year student who got grant aid paid on average for a year, after grants and scholarships (for the whole college, not one program).
