Research found that of the 1.4 million sub-Saharan African immigrants who are 25 and older, 41% have a bachelor’s degree, compared with 30% of all immigrants and 32% of the U.S.-born population. The New American Economy study found that 1 in 3 of these undergraduate degrees were focused on science, technology, engineering and math That report also found that African immigrants were significantly more likely to have graduate degrees. A total of 16% had a master’s degree, medical degree, law degree or a doctorate, compared with 11% of the U.S.-born population, African immigrants were more than twice as likely than the U.S. population overall to work in healthcare, Lim said.
