Early-Career Earnings

One measure we use to determine the quality of a school is to look at the average salary of doctorate graduates during the early years of their career. This is because one of the main reasons people pursue their doctor's degree is to enable themselves to find better-paying positions.

Other Factors We Consider

In addition to the above, you should consider some of the following factors:

• Major Focus - How much a school focuses on security science and technology students vs. other majors.
• Major Demand - How many other security science and technology students want to attend this school to pursue a doctor's degree.
• Educational Resources - The amount of money and other resources allocated to students while they are pursuing their degree. These resources include such things as number of students per instructor and education expenditures per student.
• Student Debt - How much debt security science and 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 security science and technology related body.

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

Insufficient Data for the United States

Regrettably , we do not have sufficient info to create a ranking of the quality schools for security science and technology in the United States.
