What the IPEDS & College Scorecard Data Shows for Mining and Petroleum Technologies/Technicians at Laredo College

This page combines two federal data products: IPEDS institutional characteristics for Laredo College and the College Scorecard field-of-study (FOS) file for Mining and Petroleum Technologies/Technicians at the certificate credential level. The FOS file is keyed by CIP (Classification of Instructional Programs) code, which means earnings and debt figures here reflect only graduates of this specific program – not the school as a whole. Completer counts for the most recent cohort are not currently reported for this program-school pairing.

Median graduate earnings are not published for this program-school combination, which can reflect source reporting or privacy treatment. Compared to the national mean of $119,946 across all institutions offering Mining and Petroleum Technologies/Technicians, graduates here earn at a level the national comparison cannot yet quantify. Across all programs at Laredo College, the mean median-earnings figure is $44,432, providing internal context for whether this specific field out-earns other options at the same institution.

Debt signals complete the ROI picture. Median federal debt is not separately reported for this program at this school. Program-level debt and four-year post-completion earnings come from the Department of Education’s College Scorecard field-of-study snapshot retrieved in March 2026.
