This is because one of the main reasons people pursue their bachelor's degree is to enable themselves to find better-paying positions.

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 computer programming students as compared to other majors.
• Major Demand - The number of computer programming students who choose to seek a bachelor's degree at the school.
• 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.

• Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized computer programming related body.
