Top Ranked Programs
Cuny Medgar Evers College's program mix is anchored in Biological Sciences, which accounts for 17% of degree output — the largest concentration at the college. Education represents 7% and Arts accounts for 0.8%, giving the college a profile oriented toward health sciences, social services, and applied professional fields. Across 15 programs serving roughly 599 students annually, 10 meet Azimuth's ranking threshold. Biology, General is the largest program with 172 graduates, followed by Psychology, General (150 graduates) and Business/Commerce, General (71 graduates). Among the highest-earning programs in the Azimuth coverage set, Azimuth ranks Nursing #35 for median earnings four years after enrollment, with graduates earning $125,792. Azimuth ranks Special Education and Teaching #5 among nonprofit four-year institutions for median earnings four years after enrollment, with graduates earning $66,377. Social Work and Special Education and Teaching round out the larger programs, graduating 66 and 39 students respectively. Several of Cuny Medgar Evers College's strongest programs — particularly Nursing and Special Education and Teaching — feed directly into local labor markets in healthcare and social services, fields with steady hiring demand across the New York metro area. Programs in biological sciences and psychology are more likely to serve as grad-school-dependent pathways where four-year earnings undercount the full trajectory for students who continue to graduate or professional study. The supply-demand map for college graduates provides context for how these fields align with broader national wage trends.
