Program Analysis

First-year earnings of $51,169 track close to the $51,599 national median for Human Resources Management and Services programs. This is a middle-of-the-road outcome on salary alone.

At 8.3x the cost of in-state tuition, the ten-year earnings outlook represents a strong return. Not exceptional, but meaningfully positive.

AI risk is moderate — 48% task exposure — and the 9% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.

At $20,000 in median debt against $51,169 in first-year earnings, graduates can expect to clear their loan balance in under six months of full earnings.

Ranked #78 out of 169 programs, Park University's Human Resources Management and Services offering sits in the upper half but doesn't break into the top tier.

Earnings growth is modest: $51,169 to $60,390 over five years (18% gain). This field may have a lower salary ceiling than high-growth professions.
