The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center Outcomes

MD Anderson graduates enter a job market where cancer research and treatment drive strong salaries. The median debt of $12,500 creates a debt-to-earnings ratio of just 14% against $90,232 median earnings. Monthly loan payments of $133 represent only 1.8% of gross income, well below the recommended 10% threshold. With a 98.9% employment rate, graduates typically land positions at major cancer centers, pharmaceutical companies, and research institutions. The $90,232 median salary exceeds the $65,000 national average for biomedical sciences graduates. Many pursue careers as research scientists, clinical coordinators, or continue to medical/doctoral programs. This represents a strong return on investment for specialized cancer-focused training.
