About this program

Pittsburg State University's master's in Educational Administration and Supervision prepares people for school leadership roles, and it is a mid-sized programme: about 43 students finish each year. That count matters if you want a cohort large enough to learn alongside but small enough that faculty know your name on graduation day. The money is the part to sit with. Graduates of this programme report median earnings of $51,359 one year after finishing and $45,852 two years out. Across the same subject and level nationally, the median is $52,733, so this programme lands slightly below the middle. It ranks 367 of 482 programmes in that national comparison, and 8 of 8 within Kansas. Among the university's own master's programmes, it ranks 4 of 9. Borrowing is worth checking against those earnings. Before you commit, ask what the typical debt looks like and whether your intended district's pay scale makes the numbers work. In a field where salaries are set by step schedules, a lower-earning credential can still pay off, but the two-year figure holding under the one-year figure is a prompt to ask why.
