Cost to finish = yearly price × 4.5 years, the average time graduates took (21% finished in 4 years; students who entered fall 2017, IPEDS). Years to pay back = cost to finish ÷ the earnings gain: median earnings of Industrial Engineering graduates 4 years after graduating ($90,363) minus $35,534 for high school graduates ages 25-34 in IN (Census ACS 2020-2024), a gain of $54,829 a year.
