Так и запишем: чем бредовее наука, тем важнее рейтинг университета

WSJ -- For STEM-related majors, average earnings don’t vary much among the college categories. For example, we find no statistically significant differences in average earnings for science majors between selective schools and either midtier or less-selective schools. Likewise, there’s no significant earnings difference between engineering graduates from selective and less-selective colleges, and only a marginally significant difference between selective and midtier colleges. For potential employers, the skills students learn in these fields appear to trump prestige—possibly because curriculums are relatively standardized and there’s a commonly accepted body of knowledge students must absorb.

That said, the earnings picture is very different for other fields. Outside of STEM, it matters tremendously where a student receives a degree.

The starkest earnings differences are for business majors, where graduates from the selective institutions earn 12% more on average than midtier graduates and 18% more than graduates from less-selective colleges. Likewise, social-science majors from selective colleges earn 11% more than their midtier counterparts and 14% more than those from less-selective schools.

Тут есть еще и момент что в STEM профессиях и зарплаты не так варьируются как в бизнесе (или куда там идут business majors)

Удивительная разница для бизнеса и социальных наукнаук, намного меньше, чем яожидал. Мне казалось, выпускники обычных задрищенских колледжей по таким специальностям работают менеджерами волмартов или станций смены масла, а выпускники престижных идут консультантами в маккинзи, соответственно доходу первых около 50 тысяч в года середине карьеры, а вторые тысяч 500 имеют.
