Career Outlook
Tepper UBA students are likely to have a job offer in hand before they have a diploma in hand — and for good reason.
By the time Tepper undergraduate business students graduate, they have demonstrated their unmatched analytical leadership and problem-solving skills at internships with some of the world’s leading technology, financial, consulting, pharmaceutical, CPG, and retail companies.
Our graduates’ starting salaries are ranked among the highest in undergraduate compensation, with a reported average salary for our Class of 2020 at $80,638.
One reason for these impressive statistics is the marketplace recognition of Tepper students’ preparedness. From complex analytics and modeling to strategic planning, Tepper students are among recruiters’ favorites because of their ability to perform.
