What the IPEDS & College Scorecard Data Shows for Geological/Geophysical Engineering at Missouri University of Science and Technology
This page combines two federal data products: IPEDS institutional characteristics for Missouri University of Science and Technology and the College Scorecard field-of-study (FOS) file for Geological/Geophysical Engineering at the graduate 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. IPEDS reports 28 completers in the most recent cohort for this program at Missouri University of Science and Technology, the denominator behind the median earnings figure.
Median graduate earnings are not published for this program-school combination, which can reflect source reporting or privacy treatment. Across all programs at Missouri University of Science and Technology, the mean median-earnings figure is $91,661, 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.
