Abstract

Of more than 25,000 Ph.D.s conferred by universities in the United States in 1995, more than 40% were granted to non‐U.S. citizens. According to the statistics from the Science Resources Division of the National Science Foundation (NSF), the number of non‐U.S. citizens earning doctorates remained steady in 1994 and 1995 after nearly continual increases since the 1950s. Most of the 10,493 doctorates awarded to non‐U.S. citizens were conferred on students from Asian countries, with students from China (2,751 students), Taiwan (1,239), India (1,204), and Korea (1,004) leading the way.
