The committee collected 20 measures that include characteristicsof the faculty, such as publications, citations, grants, and diversity; and characteristics of the students, such as their GRE scores, financial support, publications, and diversity; anc characteristics of the program, such as number of Ph.D.s granted over five years, time to degree, percentage of student completion, and placement of students after graduation. The data were collected for the academic year 2005-2006 from more than 5,000 doctoral programs at 212 universities. these observations span 62 fields and the research productivity data are based typicaly on a five-year interval. Some datasets (such as publications and citations) go as far back as 1981. Information on enrollments and faculty size were also collected for 14 emerging fields ... Accompanying the report are Data tables and a detailed explanation of the methodology used to collect data and calculate ranges of rankings--Summary.Universities and collegesStudy and teaching (Graduate)United StatesEvaluationResearchUnited StatesEvaluationDoctor of philosophy degreeUnited StatesEvaluationScienceStudy and teaching (Graduate)United StatesEvaluationHumanitiesStudy and teaching (Graduate)United StatesEvaluationEngineeringStudy and teaching (Graduate)United StatesEvaluationSocial sciencesStudy and teaching (Graduate)United StatesEvaluationDoctor of philosophy degreeEvaluationUnited StatesUniversities and collegesGraduate workEvaluationUnited StatesUniversities and collegesRatings and rankingsUnited StatesResearchEvaluationUnited StatesEducational surveysUnited StatesSchoolsEducationFinancial SupportHealth Care Evaluation MechanismsInvestigative TechniquesEducation, ProfessionalQuality of Health CareEconomicsHealth Care Quality, Access, and EvaluationHealth Care Economics and OrganizationsHealth CareEducational MeasurementEducation, GraduateUniversitiesResearch Support as TopicEvaluation Studies as TopicEducationHILCCSocial SciencesHILCCTheory & Practice of EducationHILCCUniversities and collegesStudy and teaching (Graduate)Evaluation.ResearchEvaluation.Doctor of philosophy degreeEvaluation.ScienceStudy and teaching (Graduate)Evaluation.HumanitiesStudy and teaching (Graduate)Evaluation.EngineeringStudy and teaching (Graduate)Evaluation.Social sciencesStudy and teaching (Graduate)Evaluation.Doctor of philosophy degreeEvaluationUniversities and collegesGraduate workEvaluationUniversities and collegesRatings and rankingsResearchEvaluationEducational surveysSchoolsEducationFinancial SupportHealth Care Evaluation MechanismsInvestigative TechniquesEducation, ProfessionalQuality of Health CareEconomicsHealth Care Quality, Access, and EvaluationHealth Care Economics and OrganizationsHealth CareEducational MeasurementEducation, GraduateUniversitiesResearch Support as TopicEvaluation Studies as TopicEducationSocial SciencesTheory & Practice of Education378.2National Research Council (U.
