Items to Note
Below is a list of interesting facts, thoughts, and answers to commonly asked questions related to the NRC Assessment of Research Doctorate Programs.
- After all data are collected, we will have an opportunity to verify and correct them. We can expect not all the data will be correct on the first round, so please be patient as we work to get it right.
- The NRC Assessment is not a one-time study. They currently have plans to gather similar data every two years. When possible, reports and processes should be established that will last into the future.
- The NRC taxonomy and methodology have been improved from previous studies. While not perfect, the process has been strengthened and the NRC will take suggestions for future improvements. We should continue to see revisions in each future version.
