Program Analysis
Graduates earn $32,962/yr, roughly in line with the $36,567 national median for Health Sciences. The value proposition here depends on cost, not earnings.
The earnings-to-cost ratio of 8.1x signals a solid financial return — projected decade earnings comfortably exceed the tuition investment.
Some AI exposure exists in Health Sciences's typical career paths, with 43% of job tasks potentially affected. The pessimistic scenario still projects solid returns, with a 2% gap from the optimistic case.
Median debt of $25,596 represents roughly 9 months of the $32,962 starting salary — a manageable burden by most borrower standards.
Ranked #125 of 156 Health Sciences programs, Eastern Connecticut State University falls below the median. Stronger options exist, though cost and location may compensate.
