Florida Polytechnic University Earnings: $87K (2026)

How much do Florida Polytechnic University graduates earn?

The reported median is $86,952 four years after completion. The peer comparison uses $53,116 as its benchmark; the difference is $33,836 per year.

Four years after completing a degree, federally aided graduates who are working and not enrolled earn a median of $86,952. That is $33,836 above the $53,116 median for comparable institutions (same type and size).

Azimuth places the return in the 67th percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions. The median earnings figure sits in the 93rd percentile nationally.

Earnings scenarios estimated from the program mix range from $65,631 on the downside to $107,009 on the upside, with $86,952 as the typical scenario. These are scenarios, not observed groups of graduates.

At the higher end, Computer Engineering graduates earn a median of $92,109 four years after completion, and Electrical Engineering graduates earn $90,086. The largest program with published earnings, Mechanical Engineering, sits lower at $70,314.

An estimated 20.1% of graduates continue to graduate study, a figure estimated from the program mix rather than observed enrollment. Because four-year earnings cover completers who are working and not enrolled, those continuing their education are outside that earnings snapshot.

Downside shows a lower-earning scenario based on the college’s mix of programs; upside shows a higher-earning scenario. Typical is the school’s reported median four years after completion. These are planning scenarios, not a forecast of your salary or percentiles of individual graduates.

Why the downside matters explores the risk hidden by medians, using older ten-year entrant data. Read about the move to four-year earnings.

Do Florida Polytechnic University graduates earn more than expected?

Azimuth models what we would expect graduates to earn based on who the college enrolls, how selective it is and its local economy. The difference between that expectation and reported earnings is what Azimuth calls value added.

That comparison is not reported for Florida Polytechnic University. Unlike a peer comparison, it adjusts for who enrolls.

The breakdown separates the contribution attributed to observed factors from the remaining difference. Neither component establishes how much attending Florida Polytechnic University caused a student to earn. Read how expected earnings are estimated.

Which fields at Florida Polytechnic University report the highest earnings?

Florida Polytechnic University is an engineering school, and the numbers bear that out. Engineering accounts for 46.5% of bachelor's degrees awarded, and Computer & Information Sciences for another 42.3%.

Together they account for nearly nine in ten degrees awarded. The largest program with published earnings is Mechanical Engineering, with 45 degrees awarded and median earnings of $70,314 four years after completion.

Computer Engineering follows with 39 degrees awarded, and completers earn $92,109 four years after completion. Electrical Engineering is smaller, with 16 degrees awarded and median earnings of $90,086.

The earnings range across the three programs is not trivial, and every one sits below the national median for its field.
