The National Science Foundation/Division of Science Resources Statistics recently released this brief report on the trends in enrollment of science and engineering graduate students from 1993 to the fall of 2000. This four-page report is accessible in hypertext format or .pdf, and it contains information on enrollment by field, citizenship, race/ethnicity, and postdoctoral appointees. Data presented in this report are from the Fall 2000 Survey of Graduate Students and Postdoctorates in Science and Engineering and were collected from approximately 11,800 departments at approximately 600 institutions of higher education in the United States. More detailed information is soon to be released in a forthcoming report entitled Graduate Students and Postdoctorates in Science and Engineering: Fall 2000.
