Here is a helpful graphic that summarises the statistics of the employment trajectories of people who start doing a Ph.D in biology in the USA. I guess that the percentages are similar for physics and chemistry. Does anyone know the actual numbers?
I welcome comment and critique on the numbers.

Hello Ross,
ReplyDeleteThank you for the interesting post.
AIP's Statistical Research Center have some latest data:

Thanks for the comment.
ReplyDeleteI generally don't find the AIP data that helpful. It mostly concerns employment one year after the Ph.D.
But, perhaps I am missing something.
The important statistics are longer term.
