There is a growing concern among educators and policymakers about the level of attrition from Ph.D. programs in the sciences and humanities at some U.S. universities. Reliable estimates of graduate student attrition are difficult to obtain, however, because most information comes from the administrative records of individual institutions. This book provides a summary of datasets that could be used to analyze patterns of graduate student attrition and degree completion nationally, along with an analysis of recent studies on the subject. Based on this information, the committee examines the feasibility of designing a system to produce national estimates of graduate student attrition.

reviewed The path to the Ph. D on September 18, 2015 The path to the Ph. D
Every doctoral supervisor should read this book, every year. The powerful argument raised here is that individual students are blamed for leaving a doctoral programme, but actually the reasons for leaving a PhD candidature programme are about connections. Connections with peers. Connections with their supervisors.
Importantly, failure in doctoral education is not 'about' the level of scholarship students bring into the programme. Students leave the programme through a lack of connection and communication with supervisors.
This is a well written and well researched book that is a warning to supervisors. Doctoral supervision is about commitment, selflessness, care and respect. Students leave a doctorate when confronted by selfishness, neglect, carelessness and disrespect.
