Business, Management, Marketing, and Related Support Services

Field of study · CIP 2020

Business, Management, Marketing, and Related Support Services is one of the fields of study in the U.S. Department of Education's Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP). It contains 100 detailed programs and, through the official CIP–SOC crosswalk, connects to 132 occupations employing about 43,176,880 workers, with a median wage of $77,070. The crosswalk shows which jobs a field of study is related to — not a guarantee of entry.

What the occupations pay

Median annual wage across the occupations this field of study leads to, from BLS OEWS (national, cross-industry, May 2024). The middle range is the 25th–75th percentile of those occupation medians — it describes the field, not any one job or graduate.

Median occupation wage $77,070
Middle range (p25–p75) $55,805 – $101,680
Occupations with wage data 127 of 132

AI exposure of this field of study

Two published studies estimate how exposed each occupation is to today's AI. The OpenAI "GPTs are GPTs" study rates the share of an occupation's tasks a large language model (with tools) could speed up by half or more; averaged across the occupations this field of study leads to it is 51% — 81st percentile of all fields of study. The independent Felten/Raj/Seamans AI Occupational Exposure index averages 1.05 here.

Computed across the 129 of 132 occupations this field leads to that carry a published exposure score.

The most-exposed fields of study lead to knowledge, language and analytical work; the least-exposed lead to physical trades and hands-on production. Exposure measures where AI could assist tasks, not a prediction that these jobs will be automated; high exposure most often means augmentation. Bands are comparable across the cluster, education, job-zone and field-of-study tiers (same two studies, same percentile method).
