This page shows what graduates with an undergraduate certificate or diploma in Electromechanical Technologies/Technicians earn four years after graduating, what they typically owe, the schools that report these figures (listed alphabetically), and the occupations linked to this field by the federal CIP-to-SOC crosswalk. It covers 20 reporting units (schools, or groups of campuses that report together) with these figures.
In context: across the 31 certificate and diploma fields with earnings reported by at least 30 schools or school groups, the typical field's median is $45,268; this field's median of $65,202 is 44% above that. The middle half of its graduates differ by $45,712 (25th to 75th percentile), wider than the typical field's $34,989, so where a graduate lands within the field varies a lot. Typical federal debt of $9,900 is about 15% of one year of that median (debt and earnings cover different graduating years). Only 20 reporting units contribute to this field, so treat the figures with extra care. These are group figures, not predictions for any graduate.
