Artificial intelligence has arrived, the order has changed, TÜİK announced... Here is the department with the highest earnings

Turkey’s statistical agency TÜİK reported that graduates of artificial intelligence-related university departments now earn the highest salaries among all fields, reflecting the technology’s growing influence on the country’s labor market and students’ choice of study. The data show AI programs topping the earnings ranking, ahead of traditional high-paying disciplines, as employers compete for scarce machine-learning and data skills. The shift matters because it signals how quickly AI is reshaping wage premiums and could steer enrollment toward computer science and AI-focused curricula. Watch for follow-up TÜİK releases on graduate earnings by field and for universities expanding AI department capacity in response to demand.
