Program Analysis
At $81,204/yr, Electrical graduates from Missouri University of Science and Technology land near the $77,516 national average — neither a standout nor a red flag.
The 14.9x 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 — 56% task exposure — and the 20% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.
The median debt load of $24,250 represents less than half a year of starting salary — among the lightest debt-to-income ratios we track.
Ranked #119 out of 262 programs, Missouri University of Science and Technology's Electrical offering sits in the upper half but doesn't break into the top tier.
Earnings growth is modest: $81,204 to $97,225 over five years (20% gain). This field may have a lower salary ceiling than high-growth professions.
