Abstract | This report will document the changes in the number and citizenship of incoming graduate physics and astronomy students. It will provide student characteristics, such as gender, age, and the type of program in which they are enrolled. It will also discuss the educational backgrounds of the incoming students, highlighting differences between US and foreign citizens. The subfields chosen by students, the types of financial support they received, and their sense of preparedness for graduate school will be discussed. Finally, students' career objectives are explored. (Contains 4 figures and 9 tables.) (ERIC). |
