Data Analysis
For years, The Graduate School has been a national leader in data collection and dissemination. The school’s statistics webpage offers extensive information about: the demographics of applicant pools, admitted students, and current student cohorts; time to degree and attrition rates; and career outcomes. The Graduate School also has compiled extensive survey data of Ph.D. students at their time of degree completion, as well as alumni. In 2021, the school and the Provost’s Office are cosponsoring a Data+ team that will greatly expand analysis of trends in these two rich sources of survey data, which will be shared across Duke’s Ph.D. programs.
