2019 Economic Security Report of Employment and Earnings Outcomes of Arkansas’s Graduates from State-Supported Institutions of Higher Education

This report provides students, parents, and others with employment, earnings, and other outcome information on graduates of Arkansas’s state-supported (public) institutions of higher education. This report is intended to help readers make informed decisions about education and career choices.

Higher Education Pays

Each level of educational achievement provides a boost in earnings power. The various certificate and degree levels are shown below for 2017 Arkansas college graduates, in addition to 2017 high school graduates who did not attend and students who attended college in 2017 for one year or less and dropped out without graduating. 2018 calendar year Arkansas earnings are averaged for the chart.

$12,700 earned in a year might sound like a lot of money… BUT RESEARCH SHOWS …

A single adult in Arkansas needs to make $22,100 each year just to cover all their expenses.

Consider the Costs

The U.S. Department of Education, National Center for Education Statistics, Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) reports the average debt for bachelor’s programs for all 50 states. The graphic compares the debt for Arkansas bachelor’s program graduates to the national average. Attending an institution of higher education requires paying for tuition and fees, in addition to standard costs associated with living expenses, such as room and board. Actual costs do vary by institution.

A number of grants, scholarships, and loan programs are available for students to utilize. It is important to understand the costs and compare to the expected earnings for the career that follows graduation.

Recognize the Rewards

A conservative estimate for differences in career earnings can be calculated by multiplying the average earnings in the fifth year after graduation by 30 years of wages. Compare to the cost of college above.

These career earnings estimates are averages for all subject areas. There can be a wide variation in the expected earnings for different programs within the same degree. Area of study is an important factor.

Area of Study

In most cases, what you study matters more than where you study. While choice of college and major should be driven by personal interest and other factors, understanding the program choices and earnings of recent graduates can help students select a program that best meets their career goals.

Studies of Health Professions are the most popular over all degree areas as well as being the most

popular choice for Certificates of Proficiency, Technical Certificates, and First Professional degrees.

The category Liberal Arts & Sciences, General Studies reflects the most common choice for the

Associate (two-year) degrees, allowing students to pursue their Bachelor’s (four-year) degree in the

specialized area of study (major subject) of their choice.

The most common Bachelor’s degree programs are in Business, Management, and Marketing.

Education is the most common choice for Master’s Degrees, Specialists, and Doctoral programs (not

including First Professional degrees of health and legal).

The most popular choice does not always have the highest average earnings. The next section of the

report combines the area of study with the education level to evaluate the first-year earnings details.

Combining Wages, Education Level, and Area of Study

Understanding that each level of educational achievement provides a boost in earnings power and that the area of study is an important factor for earnings outcomes, the first-year earnings for each combination of degree program and area of study are detailed in this report. The two academic years of higher education graduates in 2016 and 2017 were compiled and the associated first-year earnings for calendar years 2017 and 2018 were averaged for this 2019 report. All 2016 and 2017 graduates were included in these calculations. When students received multiple degrees, only the highest degree was included in the wage calculations. Note that some graduates remain enrolled after graduation to reach their additional educational goals. Some first-year earnings after graduation may be from a part-time job and not from the beginning of a professional career. Graduates still enrolled to earn a Master’s or Doctorate degree may not earn much money in the year following their Bachelor’s degree graduation while they continue their education.

The Education Specialist degree, Ed.S., is included, though it is less than Education doctorate, Ed.D. Medical doctors who have residency requirements upon graduation may earn significantly less in their first-year after graduation than they will earn by the fifth or tenth year of their professional careers.

First Year Arkansas Employment Rates Earnings reported to the Arkansas Division of Workforce Services are quarterly totals, which do not include the hourly wage or the part-time/full-time status. Graduates still enrolled as students were also excluded. To estimate the number (#) and percentage (%) of full-time workers in the first year following graduation, a minimum 2018 total of $13,260 with wages reported in all four quarters was required. $13,260 represents full-time employment of at least 30 hours per week for 52 weeks at $8.50 per hour.

Additional employed graduates who do not report to the Arkansas Division of Workforce Services include federal employees, military, many self-employed, and anyone employed outside of Arkansas. Because of these other employment potential situations, these percentages should not be used to calculate unemployment rates.

The employment rates are also impacted by the diversity of students in higher education. Besides Arkansas residents, many college students are from other states and from other countries. Upon completing their degrees, they may return to their communities outside of Arkansas to work.

Where to Study The choice of college or university is dependent upon many factors, such as cost, location, financial aid, community, activities, friends, and family advice. In some cases, only one institution in the state may offer the program that you wish to study, especially if you choose to continue into graduate school. Below are the counts for 2018 First Time In College designations by the institutions of higher education.

Summary

The cost to obtain any of the certificates or degrees highlighted in this report at an Arkansas publicpostsecondary institution is significantly lower than the hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars inadditional average career earnings.

Although each graduate’s success will reflect a variety of factors such as the local job market, wherethey choose to live, what area they choose to study, and other factors, this report provides valuableinformation as students and parents consider education and career choices.

Education and Employment Information by Institution

As specified in Arkansas Act 852 of 2015, information detailing the areas of study for each certificate anddegree at each state-supported institution in Arkansas is also included in this 2019 report. Students whowere still enrolled in higher education during 2018 after their graduation were excluded from the full-time employment calculations.

The Arkansas wages data used for this report do not include employment outside of Arkansas, federal ormilitary jobs, or any employed Arkansans who are not reported to Arkansas unemployment insurance.

Included for each institution is the data for economic outcomes at the degree level for all programs.The detailed program reports by area of study correspond to the Classification of Instruction Programs(CIP) codes.

A minimum of eleven graduates from 2016 and 2017 degree programs and a minimum of three full-timeemployed in Arkansas in 2017 and 2018 were required to present the data in this report. This report hasbeen prepared in accordance with specifications of Arkansas Act 852 of 2015. The electronic version ofthis report will be revised continually as data is available.For the latest edition: www.dws.arkansas.gov/news-info/dws-pub/

As a reminder, earnings reported to the Arkansas Division of Workforce Services are quarterly totals,which do not include the hourly wage or the part-time/full-time status. To estimate the number,percentage, and average wages of full-time workers in the first year following graduation, a minimumannual wage of $13,260 and a requirement of wages reported in all four quarters of a calendar yearwere used. $13,260 represents 30 hours of work at $8.50 per hour for 52 weeks. Graduates whoremained enrolled in 2018 were excluded from full-time employment.

In order to satisfy the Act 852 requirement for the top twenty-five percent of certificates and degreesand the bottom ten percent of certificates and degrees by state-supported institution of highereducation, all of the certificates and degrees have been supplied in this report.

The institutions are listed in alphabetical order on the pages which follow, and the Table of Contentsat the beginning of the report includes a list of the institutions with the beginning page number.

Northwest Technical Institute will be included in the 2020 Economic Security Report anticipated prior toAugust 2020.
