How degrees and careers are connected
All seven occupations in the official CIP 2020 / SOC 2018 forward crosswalk are shown. These are educational connections, not observed graduate destinations or guaranteed eligibility. All 7 exact relationships for CIP 52.1401 are shown. The groups are editorial descriptions of the work, not official source classifications, sequential career steps or personal eligibility. No link is a measured graduate placement.
Pay describes occupations, not graduates of this degree. Work experience and advanced education may both be needed. Missing evidence is not zero.
Sources, dates and coverage
Degree connections come from the official NCES CIP 2020–SOC 2018 crosswalk. JMH has filtered and joined these federal source data to its occupation catalog. BLS supplies occupation descriptions and typical entry requirements. These are JMH’s presentation and interpretation, not agency endorsements.
Each degree has its own shortlist of occupation codes on this device only. Switching degrees preserves your previous choices. No account or personal details are needed.
BLS occupation profiles and tables supply displayed pay; occupation profiles supply available work descriptions. BLS Table 5.4 supplies typical entry requirements. See each career’s source. This pilot does not estimate degree earnings, competition per opening or personal suitability.
Pay periods are shown for each occupation at the precision supplied by its source. Most are May 2025; a year-only source is not treated as month-specific. Evidence reviewed: October 24, 2026. The teacher work preview describes the broader postsecondary teaching group.
