Hello. The U.S. Department of Education compiles the data that you seek and publishes it as the "Digest of Education Statistics." According to the 2001 Digest, the Computer & Information Sciences graduates in 1999-2000 were as follows: Bachelor's: 36,195 http://nces.ed.gov//pubs2002/digest2001/tables/dt255.asp Master's: 14,264 http://nces.ed.gov//pubs2002/digest2001/tables/dt256.asp Doctorate: 777 http://nces.ed.gov//pubs2002/digest2001/tables/dt257.asp search strategy: "digest of education statistics" I hope this helps. |

The CRA (Computer Research Association) also tracks this yearly by surveying all the CS research universities. The numbers are widely different from the Deptartment of Education which I'm guessing is due to a wider range of degrees making up "Computer & Information Sciences" and also a high number of non-research universities/colleges granting undergraduate CS degrees. These numbers were calculated from the 2002 report with the following formula: US CS = (Total - Canadian - US CE) Bachelor's: 12,302 http://www.cra.org/CRN/articles/march02/tables9to16.html#11 Master's: 6,089 http://www.cra.org/CRN/articles/march02/tables9to16.html#12 Phd's: 773 http://www.cra.org/CRN/articles/march02/tables1to8.html#1 The final report published in 2002: http://www.cra.org/CRN/articles/march02/bryant.vardi.html The final report published in 2001: http://www.cra.org/statistics/survey/00/00.pdf |
