Re# 39 “To be fair, the NSF data is for science and engineering PhDs.”
This is explained in #41, “I’m too lazy.”.
In that case, to even think about or read what I was cutting & pasting. Though it goes far beyond that…
Re #39,“I doubt that the data are available, but it would be nice to see information for liberal arts PhDs, medical students, law students, and MBA students.”
I’ve seen it for all PhDs, including liberal arts PhDs. Apparently one can get all data from the “Webcaspar” databases. OR NSF , someplace.
But I won’t try to do that, see last sentence, post #41.
It is infrequently listed without “per capita” (though the fact that is is per capita is often conveniently omitted), because the parties listing it are liberal arts colleges that are using the data as marketing tools. For that purpose they only want to show the per capita numbers, because that is what makes them look good.
The last listing of total PhDs I can find at this time that was posted on CC is from 2008. There are probably more recent ones.
"Here’s the top 100 in raw numbers of graduates getting PhDs from 1994-2003.
First number is PhDs awarded.
Second number is total graduates over the offset 10-year period.*
