An Assessment of Research-Doctorate Programs in the United States: Mathematical & Physical Sciences.
Jones, Lyle V., Ed.; And Others – 1982
The quality of doctoral-level chemistry (N=145), computer science (N=58), geoscience (N=91), mathematics (N=115), physics (N=123), and statistics/biostatistics (N=64) programs at United States universities was assessed, using 16 measures. These measures focused on variables related to: program size; characteristics of graduates; reputational…
