How big is the program signal?
Social Sciences, General accounts for 3.6% of reported programs at University of Oregon, which is bigger than 84% of schools in this field set and 1.8x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 746 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?
University of Oregon's average net price is $22,182 per year, about $88,728 over four years. That is $5,252 above the $16,930 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $61,324 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $6,919 above the $54,405 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
What should I compare next?
Start with program share, net price after aid, graduation rate, location, and whether the department publishes placement or licensure outcomes. EduGradify ranks University of Oregon #256 of 360 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
