2007 Annual Survey of the Mathematical Sciencesin the United States

摘要

The Annual Survey of the Mathematical Sciences collects information each year about degree recipients, departments, faculties, and students in the mathematical sciences at four-year colleges and universities in the United States. Information about recipients of doctoral degrees awarded between July 1, 2006, and June 30, 2007, was collected from doctorate-granting departments beginning in late spring 2007. The "2007 Annual Survey First Report" (Notices, February 2008, pages 253-63) presented survey results about 1,157 new doctoral recipients based on the data provided by the departments. Here we update this information using data obtained from 547 new doctoral recipients who responded to a questionnaire, "Employment Experiences of New Doctoral Recipients" (EENDR), sent in early October 2007 to all new doctoral recipients. In addition, this report incorporates information on an additional 176 doctoral recipients from departments that responded too late to have the information included in the First Report. Finally, we present the starting salaries and other employment information from the new doctoral recipients that responded to the EENDR questionnaire.
