[How Azimuth compares programs across colleges](/analysis/college-program-rankings-how-to-actually-evaluate-programs/) ## Further analysis [Azimuth's program ranking](/analysis/college-program-rankings-how-to-actually-evaluate-programs/)s are built to surface the variation in outcomes across fields, evaluating four-year earnings among federally aided completers, median debt, and cohort size rather than reputation. University of North Georgia has earnings data for 28 fields, and 24 of those carry an Azimuth national rank. Award counts here are degrees conferred in one academic year, not a count of students. The degree mix is anchored by Business, which accounts for 20.2% of bachelor's degrees awarded, followed by Health Professions at 10.2% and Education at 8.0%. The largest single program is Nursing, at 209 degrees a year, with graduates earning a median of $81,887 four years after completion. The best nationally ranked program is Human Services, which Azimuth ranks #18 in its field and #2 in Georgia, with graduates earning $43,810. The highest-earning program is a smaller one: Computer and Information Sciences graduates earn $90,765 four years out, from 70 degrees a year. ## Data & methodology Sources and reporting periods: [methodology](/methodology/).
