Questions about this program

How big is the program signal?

Precision Metal Working accounts for 8.3% of reported programs at Bladen Community College, which is bigger than 88% of schools in this field set and 2.2x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 86 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.

Are the earnings major-specific?

No. The $30,591 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $9,736 below the $40,327 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.

What should I compare next?
