Physical Education/Coaching
The tables below present the occupations that are most commonly associated
with a degree in Physical Education/Coaching. We have separated the tables
depending on whether we examine graduates who stop their education with the
bachelors degree in Physical Education/Coaching, and those who get either a masters
in Physical Education/Coaching, a Ph.D. in Physical Education/Coaching.
While the list above describes the occupations of students with advanced degrees in
Physical Education/Coaching some students with a bachelors degree in Physical Education/Coaching will get advanced
degrees in other fields. The tables listed below descibe the types of advanced degrees
that were chosen by students with a bachelors in Physical Education/Coaching.
Since all of the above tables present information on the average salary,
it is possible to lose sight of the fact that some majors place students
in jobs with a narrow range of salaries near to the mean while others
place students in many different income categories. For this reason,
we have drawn two frequency distributions (histograms) of Physical Education/Coaching Salaries.
Histogram of Physical Education/Coaching Salaries: Bachelors Degree Only
The diagram below includes all students with a major in Physical Education/Coaching who received no degree beyond the bachelors.

Histogram of Physical Education/Coaching Salaries: Bachelors and Beyond

The data includes students who subsequently earned degrees beyond the bachelors.
