Reading Industry-Level H-1B Data
Industry here is NAICS code 6113, the classification the employer reported on the filing itself, so this counts every Iowa employer that classified itself in Colleges, Universities, and Professional Schools, not a curated list.
A certified Labor Condition Application is a step toward an H-1B petition, not an approved visa. Wages are the offered wage, which the employer must set at or above the DOL prevailing wage for the role and area, so the $72K median reflects Iowa rates rather than a national figure.
