To continue NEH support of the Annual Survey of Earned Doctorates and maintenance of the Doctorate Records File. From information collected by means of a questionnaire filled out by graduates the National Research Council publishes a summary report Doctorate Recipients from U.S. Universities and returns a computer printout of data to the degree-granting institution, makes detailed statistical data available and updates its historical file. This survey covers all research doctorates awarded since 1920 and is a valuable source of information on highly trained manpower in the U.S.
