How this list is ordered
Schools are ordered by the median earnings of their Computer Science graduates four years after completing, highest first. Only schools with a reported Computer Science earnings cohort in the South appear. The figure captures federally aided completers who were working and not enrolled four years after finishing the program. For 18 of the 226 listed programs the figure is the two-year completion median rather than the four-year one. The metric does not adjust for graduate school enrollment, cost, or who enrolls, and it is not a measure of teaching quality. The range and median below cover the 205 schools with a published figure. At the top, Johns Hopkins University reports $196,467 and Duke University reports $195,809, a gap of $658.
Job market context in the South
Computer Science graduates in the South enter occupations such as Software Developers, Computer User Support Specialists, and Computer Occupations, All Other. The median annual wage across those occupations is $105,442, and a quarter of workers in those occupations earn less than $81,278. Projections for 2024 to 2034 show about 164,380 openings a year, or about 448 openings a year for every hundred graduates, with more projected openings than graduates. Projections for 2024 to 2034 put employment in those occupations about 13.8% higher. Wages and top occupations exclude management occupations; openings include them. The ranking above uses graduate earnings four years after completing, not the broader occupational wage figures shown here.
