上大学在劳动力市场上仍然能带来显著优势,但在毕业后找到一份体面工作方面,另一个因素可能更为重要:你所学的专业。
纽约联邦储备银行近期的一项分析根据大学专业对22至27岁大学毕业生的就业情况进行了排名,包括他们在职业生涯初期和中期的预期收入。
一个关键结论是:尽管许多应届大学毕业生在其所选领域找到好工作面临重大挑战,但拥有学位仍然能给年轻求职者带来优势,尤其是在薪资方面。
另一个发现可能会让遵循传统建议主修计算机科学、工程学、信息系统和其他技术领域的年轻毕业生感到更震惊。纽约联邦储备银行的研究人员发现,由于雇主在疫情期间过度扩张后缩减招聘,如今科技类工作越来越难找。
该分析还衡量了不同大学专业的就业不足率,这反映了在所学领域找到工作的难度。
例如,近期计算机科学专业毕业生的失业率相对较高,为7%,而全国平均失业率为4.3%。然而,研究显示,这些毕业生中只有19%被认为存在就业不充分问题。
相比之下,近期刑事司法专业毕业生的就业不足率接近66%,而从事表演艺术职业的毕业生这一比例接近64%。
以下是根据纽约联邦储备银行的分析,各大学专业在就业前景和收入潜力方面的排名情况。
These college majors have the highest earning potential and lowest unemployment rates, study finds

Attending college still confers significant benefits in the labor market, but another factor may be even more important when it comes to finding a decent job after graduation: what you study.
A recent analysis from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York ranks employment outcomes for college graduates ages 22 to 27 based on their major, including how much money they can expect to earn early on in and midway through their careers.
One key takeaway: Although many recent college grads face significant challenges finding a good job in their chosen field, having a degree still gives young workers an edge, especially in terms of pay.
Another finding may come as more of a shock for young grads who followed the conventional advice to major in computer science and engineering, information systems, and other technology fields. The New York Fed researchers found that tech jobs are harder to come by these days as employers pull back in hiring after expanding too quickly during the pandemic years.
The analysis also measured the rate of underemployment for different college majors, which reflects how hard it is to find a job in your field of study.
For example, recent computer science majors have a relatively high unemployment rate, at 7%, compared with a national average of 4.3%. Yet just 19% of those grads are considered underemployed, according to the research.
By comparison, the underemployment rate for recent criminal justice grads is nearly 66%, while for those pursuing a career in the performing arts the figure approaches 64%.
Here’s how college majors stack up in terms of employment prospects and earning potential, according to the New York Fed.
