Questions about this program

How big is the program signal?

Biopsychology accounts for 1.4% of reported programs at Simmons University, which is bigger than 59% of schools in this field set and below the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 23 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.

Are the earnings major-specific?

No. The $63,494 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $4,553 above the $58,941 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.

What should I compare next?
