DOCTORATES IN CHEMISTRY AND RELATED FIELDS CONFERRED BY AMERICAN UNIVERSITIES, 192P-1930 COMPILED BY CLARENCE J. WESTAND CALLIE HULL, RESEARCH INPOBMAnON SERVICE. NATIONAL RESEARCH Cowcn, WASHINGTON, D. C. The Research Information Service of the National Research Council again offersthe following statistics concerning the doctorates in chemistry and related fields conferred by American Universities during the academic year 1929-1930. This is the sixth year in which this compilation has been OF CHEMICAL made; previous lists have been published in the JOURNAL EDUCATION 3,77-99 (Jan., 1926); 4,99-109 (Jan., 1927); 4,1303-13 (Oct., 1927); 5, 1450-63 (Nov.. 1928); 6, 2209-23 (Dec.. 1929). In this compilation the doctorates granted by the universities in agricultural chemistry, biochemistry, engineering, and metallurgy have been listed under the separate headings but are included in the totals by university in the statistical tables. In selecting the titles to be included, those doctorates have been used, which, if published, would probably be abstracted in Chemical Abstracts. Attention is again called to the fact that the compilers have only the title of the thesis and, in most instances, the department in which the doctorate was granted, to aid them in the subject classification. It is not always possible to classify correctly from this information, which may account for the inclusion or the omission of a given thesis. Corrections and suggestions its to this publication are always appreciated. There are fifteen universities who report ten or more doctorates in chemistry and related subjects during the past academic year. Chicago assumes first place this year with 37 doctorates; Wisconsin, first in the past two compilations, assumes second place; Yale and Illinois tie for third place. Information concerning all the doctorates granted in the sciences (1055 for the year 1929-1930) will appear in a forthcoming number of the Reprint and Circular Series of the National Research Council, copies of which may be obtained from the Publication Office.
