Brown Sociology among the Top Ten in Faculty Productivity


Dear Friends and Colleagues:

Please check out a recent study on faculty productivity published in the Chronicle of Higher Education. From this article (which describes the rating process), go to the database, found under "Related Materials." Once there, you can make queries about disciplines and universities.

Sociology at Brown is ranked #8 nationally (tied with the University of Chicago) on faculty productivity, out of 375 institutions offering the PhD in Sociology.

Interesting set of results... Not a perfect measure, but it has more "fact" behind it than the NRC reputational indices.
