<p>Pretty low overall.</p>

4

<p>Some of these places offer applied math degrees. Some sponsored by the math department, some by an applied math department, or department or division of engineering/applied science, or something else. Do your figures include all the applied math degrees? Only those app math that are granted by the math dept? OR exclude app math altogether?</p>

5

<p>These figures from IPEDS are for categories of degrees, not departments. So the figures should be for math and applied math together.</p>

6

<p>tell me why u waste ur time w. this stuff?</p>

7

<p>Well I'll add to that list, lol.</p>

"why u waste ur time w. this stuff?"</p>

<p>For those who have the skill, it only takes a couple of minutes. Some have said they find this interesting. I think absolute size and relative size have something to do with the quality of the program, indirectly and in a complicated fashion. I think the information is new and interesting. The IPEDS Peer Analysis System enables you to quickly download data reported to the US Department of Education about any colleges in the US and calculate means, ratios, sums. That dataset can be imported into Excel which can be sorted in various ways with the click of a few buttons. What else would you like to know?</p>

9

<p>Do you have the numbers for the universities of oregon, arizona, san diego state, and arizona state?</p>

10

<p>University, total bachelors degrees, math bachelors degrees, proportion of math bachelors degrees</p>

<p>UNIVERSITY OF OREGON 3335 46 .01
UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA 5303 31 .01
SAN DIEGO STATE 6019 56 .01
ARIZONA STATE 7046 50 .01</p>
