How Azimuth compares programs across colleges

Further analysis

Outcomes at Taylor University vary sharply by field of study, and the programs page is where that variation becomes visible. The university has 9 programs with published earnings data, and the figures that follow cover completers four years after graduation; award counts are degrees conferred in one academic year.

The degree mix is led by Business, which accounts for 23.2% of bachelor's degrees awarded, followed by Education at 14.8% and Visual & Performing Arts at 11.6%. The largest single program is Business Administration and Management, with 38 degrees awarded and median earnings of $76,192 four years after completion.

Teacher Education is nearly as large, at 37 degrees, but its completers earn $50,237. The highest-earning program is a smaller one: Computer Science graduates report $108,812 four years out, from 14 degrees a year.

Marketing is both the third-largest program and the second-highest earner, at $78,191 from 33 degrees awarded. The spread between the top and bottom of the earnings range is wide, and a student's field choice here carries real weight.
