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 much a school focuses on social sciences students vs. other majors.
• Major Demand - The number of social sciences students who choose to seek a doctor'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.
• Student Debt - How easy is it for social sciences to pay back their student loans after receiving their doctor's degree.
• Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized social sciences related body.

Our full ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best colleges for social sciences students working on their doctor's degree.

Insufficient Data for Arizona

On account of lacking data, we couldn't show you the social sciences quality ranking. This is typically due to there not being enough schools in Arizona that both offer social sciences and provided enough information for us to do a proper analysis.
