Program Analysis
At $30,092/yr, Health and Physical Education/Fitness graduates from Southern Utah University land near the $31,057 national average — neither a standout nor a red flag.
The 15.9x 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 — 25% task exposure — and the 4% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.
The median debt load of $13,500 represents less than half a year of starting salary — among the lightest debt-to-income ratios we track.
Ranked #261 out of 529 programs, Southern Utah University's Health and Physical Education/Fitness offering sits in the upper half but doesn't break into the top tier.
