Indicator 6.4Doctoral degrees awarded per 100 faculty, UC and comparison institutions, 2001-06
Overall, UC campuses confer more doctoral degrees per faculty member than the other AAU public institutions, and are on par with the AAU private institutions.
The data reflect favorably on the UC faculty's role in producing doctoral degrees. However, these data do not necessarily suggest that UC faculty are more productive than faculty at other AAU universities. UC has proportionally fewer terminal masters degrees than other AAUs, meaning that UC faculty's graduate instruction is more concentrated on doctorates. These data may also reflect differences in the way institutions define and count faculty in the data they report nationally.
