Legend: CIP Codes are used to categorize industry segments and the following segments correlate to degree programs offered at UWF. The FL Openings represent annual openings of jobs in the category in Florida. UWF grads represent the number of total students (graduate and undergraduate) who graduated and took jobs in those fields in 2021 (most recent government data). The average yearly rate includes all workers in that category so it includes entry-level and senior-level employees.
