Job Outlooks and Cedarville Programs

The US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) captures data on starting salaries and employment outlooks for various job fields with different expectations for the starting degree. This document attempts to bring together data from BLS, IPEDS, and OEWS to give programmatic insights to academic offerings in light of their career implications.

Data Sources

• BLS Occupational Employment Projections Data gives outlooks on salaries and job market growth
• Department of Education (ED) IPEDS data: C{year}_A contains information on the number of degrees awarded by school by year by level.
• ED CIP/BLS Crosswalk connects degrees (CIP) to professions (BLS)
• Department of Education (ED) IPEDS data: c{year}dep contains information on the number of degrees per CIP and the number partially and fully delivered remotely.
• Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics provides more detailed employment and wage information by state.

Assumptions/Warnings

• The crosswalk is specific to professions, but this belies the value of a liberal education unlocking careers across the spectrum
• C(year)_A data is queried specifically to Award Level 5 (Bachelor's degree)
• c{year}dep numbers for partially and fully delivered remotely were combined to indicate online potential.
• Information on Cedarville University is generally taken from ED, not local, data
• BLS data sources seem to be taken at different points in the year, so occupational data does not always match OEWS data.
• This is a new form of direct analysis for the author. Data should be directly investigated before conclusions are reached.
