What the IPEDS & College Scorecard Data Shows for Public Health at University of North Texas Health Science Center

This page combines two federal data products: IPEDS institutional characteristics for University of North Texas Health Science Center and the College Scorecard field-of-study (FOS) file for Public Health at the master's 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 53 completers in the most recent cohort for this program at University of North Texas Health Science Center, the denominator behind the median earnings figure.

Median graduate earnings of $79,858 represent Treasury-derived wages, deferred compensation, and positive self-employment earnings four years after program completion for federally aided completers who were working and not enrolled. Compared to the national mean of $80,520 across all institutions offering Public Health, graduates here earn below the national average for this program. Across all programs at University of North Texas Health Science Center, the mean median-earnings figure is $104,014, providing internal context for whether this specific field out-earns other options at the same institution.

Debt signals complete the ROI picture. The median cumulative federal loan debt for Public Health graduates at University of North Texas Health Science Center is $48,552, which translates to roughly $405 per month on a standard 10-year repayment plan.

About the Data

Data from the U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard Field of Study file. Earnings are median earnings for graduates after completion, drawn from U.S. Treasury tax records linked to federal financial aid applicants. Institutional characteristics come from IPEDS. Debt figures represent the median cumulative federal loan debt at graduation.

Debt-to-earnings ratio compares cumulative debt to annual earnings. A ratio below 1.0 indicates that annual earnings exceed total debt, generally considered favorable. Estimated monthly payments assume a standard 10-year repayment plan.

PlainCollege's Scorecard snapshots, retrieved March–July 2026, contain 6,243 postsecondary institutions and 70,827 school-and-program earnings records.
