Enrollments and Short-Term Outlook for Degree Trends
The enrollment of junior and senior undergraduate students increased by 47% between 2002 and 2003.
(See Table 1.) In 2001 and 2002, the undergraduate enrollments were considerably higher than in the
preceding three years. This enrollment trend indicates that the number of bachelor's degrees are likely to
remain approximately the same in 2004 but should increase in 2005.
The enrollment of masters' level graduate students increased 16% in the fall 2003 versus the fall of 2002.
This is almost 28% higher than the master's level enrollment in 2001. These enrollment increases
suggest that the number of masters' degrees will also increase over the next two to three years.
Between 1998 and 2000, doctorate level enrollments decreased and then increased in 2001. However,
doctorate level enrollments decreased in 2002 and again in 2003. Given the overall decline in doctorate
enrollments over the last six years, it is likely that the number of doctorate degrees will also decline
somewhat over the next few years.
