Population shown in these results
Applies to charts and tableEveryone included in this metric, with no demographic filters
Who is included?
Civilian noninstitutionalized bachelor’s degree holders age 25–64 with a mapped first field of degree.
Grouped by College major. Each group uses the same population filters.
What this selection shows
2024 · No demographic filters
28 of 28 estimates loaded so far are available. The displayed college graduates by major estimates range from 1.0% to 21.2% for the loaded results. A difference between estimates does not by itself show a statistically significant difference. Check the paired difference confidence interval and reliability labels when available; separate population margins of error do not test that difference.

28 result rows returned, including any requested calculations. These counts apply to the displayed selection only.
What do the availability labels mean?
- Absent coverage
- This combination is not included in the release. No estimate or reliability assessment is available.
- Ineligible selection
- The selected group falls outside the measure’s population universe or valid category combinations. A broader release cannot make that statistic eligible.
- Undefined or missing input
- A zero denominator makes a statistic undefined. Missing required information prevents calculation. These are distinct from withholding an otherwise defined estimate under reliability rules.
- Suppressed
- A result exists, but its estimate and uncertainty are withheld under the release’s reliability rules. This is not a zero.
- Unstable
- The estimate is shown with uncertainty, but its relative standard error exceeds the release’s threshold. Use caution.
- Stable
- The estimate meets the release’s sample size and relative standard error thresholds. It still has sampling uncertainty.
