Quality of education is important for every country, educational institution, organisation, and beneficiary of industries. The goal of this research was to evaluate the impact of the higher education systems of Pakistan on high-earning jobs in urban areas. Correlational research design in a quantitative approach was used to find the associations between the variables (higher education systems and high-earning professions) and to explore the effects of higher education systems (government and private universities) on high-earning jobs in the urban settings of Lahore. N=400 alumni students were selected from four Universities (2 public & 2 private) with high and low costs using the purposive sampling technique. The correlation was used to find the associations between variables, regression analysis to find predicting role, and t-test for differences between private and government high and low-cost universities. Findings revealed that significant associations were found between higher education systems and high-earning jobs, the significant predicting role of the higher education system and the significant difference between high-earning professions by private and public high and low-cost universities. The present study will be implemented to raise the quality of education by public and private universities through professional skills and career success.
