Choosing a Great Security Science and Technology School for Your Associate Degree

Your choice of security science and technology for getting your associate 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 take this into account we consider a college's overall Best Colleges ranking which itself looks at a host of different factors like degree completion, educational resources, student body caliber and post-graduation earnings for the school as a whole.

Average Earnings

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

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 security science and technology students as compared to other majors.
• Major Demand - The number of security science and technology students who choose to seek a associate 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 much debt security science and technology students go into to obtain their associate 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 full ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best colleges for security science and technology students working on their associate degree.

Insufficient Data for Ohio

Because of missing data, we could not show you the security science and technology quality ranking. This is usually due to there not being enough schools in Ohio that both offer security science and technology and provided enough information for us to do a sufficient analysis.
