Abstract | This article describes the results of a report released last week by the Council of Graduate Schools. The report, "Ph.D. Completion and Attrition: Analysis of Baseline Demographic Data From the Ph.D. Completion Project," is based on data from 24 universities in the United States and Canada. According to this report, women and members of minority groups tend to take longer than students from other groups to complete doctoral programs, while international students stand out as the fastest in earning Ph.D.'s. The report is unusual both in its large scope--covering 19,000 students who entered doctoral programs in the 1990s--and in its attention to which groups of students finish doctoral programs later than others.
