Infographic: What are College Degrees Worth, & To Whom?



Leading up to BostInno’s State of Innovation Forum, we surveyed nearly 500 readers to discover what the future of higher education looks like here in the Hub. Gone are the days of innovation happening solely from the confines of a college campus, with several initiatives pushing the boundaries of how we learn here locally.

Through in-depth research and an interactive forum—featuring the best and brightest in Boston’s marketing, mobile, higher education, retail and e-commerce sectors—BostInno realized how swiftly the landscape is changing, particularly in education.

A degree, albeit valuable, isn’t being used the way it once was, as employers begin zeroing in more on candidates’ past experience than where they received the costly credential deeming them “educated.”

For a better understanding of employers’ sentiments, below is an exclusive look at our findings from the education survey. Want more?
