Sam:

The 36 for Georgia Tech is also for ten years. The relative comparison is the same.

Actually, if you look at the lists I’ve posted, I’ve included the exact formula: 10 years of PhDs from the NSF database per 1000 undergrads of current enrollment. Obviously, the per year numbers are going to be small.

I hope you didn’t think that getting PhDs is a real common occurrence. If so, then these lists would be valuable in that regard, too.

BTW, if you want raw totals, without regard to size of the school, here are the total PhDs from each of the first 25 undergrad college for the same ten year period:

736 Massachusetts Institute of Technology
657 University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
628 University of California-Berkeley
498 Pennsylvania State U, Main Campus
493 Cornell University, All Campuses
476 Purdue University, Main Campus
454 University of Michigan at Ann Arbor
408 Georgia Institute of Technology, Main Campus
394 Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State Univ
367 Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
346 University of Texas at Austin
327 Texas A&M University Main Campus
314 University of Wisconsin-Madison
307 University of Minnesota - Twin Cities
273 University of Florida
269 North Carolina State University at Raleigh
