Computing Community Consortium Blog

The goal of the Computing Community Consortium (CCC) is to catalyze the computing research community to debate longer range, more audacious research challenges; to build consensus around research visions; to evolve the most promising visions toward clearly defined initiatives; and to work with the funding organizations to move challenges and visions toward funding initiatives. The purpose of this blog is to provide a more immediate, online mechanism for dissemination of visioning concepts and community discussion/debate about them.

Where Do Domestic Ph.D. Students in CS Come From?

January 15th, 2013 / in Uncategorized / by Shar Steed

The CRA’s Education Committee has published a new report in the January 2013 edition of Computing Research News on the Baccalaureate Origins of Domestic Ph.D. Students in Computing Fields. If you would like receive CRN via email, you can sign up here.

The article provides an initial examination of the baccalaureate origins of domestic students who have matriculated to Ph.D. programs in computer science.  The trends and patterns in the presented data can be useful both in recruiting and, ultimately, in improving the quality and quantity of the domestic Ph.D. pipeline.
