The percentage is the share of this school's reported awards or completions attributed to the field. It is not the share of enrolled students, a student headcount, or proof of department quality. College Scorecard price and earnings on this page are school-wide, not major-specific. Verify current credentials and department outcomes with the school.

Evidence used here: federal awards/completions share (2.6%), school-wide average net price ($2,525), school-wide ten-year median earnings ($33,227), and peer averages from 355 schools reporting awards in this field. Evidence not included: program enrollment, department-level salary, placement rate, course quality, licensure eligibility, certification, or exam pass-rate outcomes.

What does the share of awards mean?

Precision Metal Working accounts for 2.6% of the awards or completions reported for Southwest Mississippi Community College. That award concentration is higher than at 49% of schools in this field set and is below the national average award concentration.

Are the earnings major-specific?

No. The $33,227 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $7,100 below the $40,327 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
