Choosing a Great Food Science Technology School for Your Doctor's Degree

Your choice of food science technology for getting your doctor's degree school matters. This section explores some of the factors we include in our ranking and how much they vary depending on the school you select. When choosing a school we recommend considering some of the following factors:

Quality Overall Is Important

A school that excels in educating for a particular major and degree level must be a great school overall as well. To account for this we include a college's overall Best Colleges for a Doctor's Degree ranking which itself looks at a collection of different factors like degree completion, educational resources, student body caliber and post-graduation earnings for the school as a whole.

Average Earnings

To determine the overall quality of a graduate school, one factor we look at is the average early-career salary of those receiving their doctor's degree from the school. After all, your doctor's degree won't mean much if it doesn't help you find a job that will help you earn a living.

Other Factors We Consider

The metrics below are just some of the other metrics that we use to determine our rankings.

• Major Focus - How many resources a school devotes to food science technology students as compared to other majors.
• Major Demand - How many other food science technology students want to attend this school to pursue a doctor's degree.
• Educational Resources - How many resources are allocated to students. These resources may include educational expenditures per student, number of students per instructor, and graduation rate among other things.
• Student Debt - How much debt food science technology students go into to obtain their doctor's degree and how well they are able to pay back that debt.
• Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized food science technology related body.

Our full ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best schools for food science technology students working on their doctor's degree.

Insufficient Data for the Southeast Region

Because of absent data, we could not provide you with the food science technology quality ranking. This is typically due to there not being enough schools in the Southeast Region that both offer food science technology and provided enough information for us to do a detailed analysis.
