Top Feeders to Ph.D. Programs (Ph.D. Productivity)
For those pursuing careers in academia and/or research, a terminal degree in your field of choice will typically be required in order to maximize your professional prospects.
Most frequently, this will entail earning a Ph.D. in either the hard sciences, social sciences, or humanities. In order to gain acceptance into a Ph.D. program, and—more importantly—successfully complete the degree, you will need refined skills in the areas of oral and written communication, self-directed research, and analysis and problem-solving. Certain undergraduate colleges are known for churning out graduates with this unique blend of talents who go on to earn doctoral degrees and become leaders in the world of higher education.
In order to identify “top Ph.D. feeder” colleges, we relied on data from the National Science Foundation’s Survey of Earned Doctorates (SED), an annual census conducted of all individuals earning a research doctorate from an accredited U.S. institution. Using SED, we identified the undergraduate backgrounds of all research doctorate recipients over the past five years, examining which institutions produced the most Ph.D.s in total and across fourteen academic disciplines, specifically anthropology, biological sciences, chemistry, computer science, education, economics, engineering, English, foreign languages, history, mathematics & statistics, physics & astronomy, political science & government, psychology, and sociology. For each discipline, we construct two lists. The first list reveals the raw number of students per institution who go on to earn a Ph.D. The second list looks at the top Ph.D. producers when adjusting for one measure of an institution’s size, namely the number of undergraduate degrees an institution produces per year. This allows us to highlight schools that may be smaller in size, but that still produce a consistent flow of doctoral recipients.
