INTERVENTIONS TO IMPROVE Ph.D. COMPLETION RATE AT DUKE AFTER 1995: STUDENT FUNDING Institute 5-6 year funding guarantee in all A&S units; generally support to degree in sciences Departments given budgets based on graduate education parameters, not service needs 3-year budgets to deal with variations in yield Reduction in student teaching loads; more fellowship years Competitive summer research support introduced Funded capstone teaching fellowships at dissertation stage

INTERVENTIONS TO IMPROVE Ph.D. COMPLETION RATE AT DUKE AFTER 1995: BETTER INFORMED SELECTION Reduce emphasis on GRE scores and GPAs – data show poor correlation with completion as Duke uses them Emphasize demonstrated research experience Transparency: Put Duke data on placement, time to degree, completion rates in each program – student should know what (s)he is getting into Interview students before admitting them – Exchange information to learn fit rather than just sell program

INTERVENTIONS TO IMPROVE Ph.D. COMPLETION RATE AT DUKE AFTER 1995: IMPROVED PROGRAMS Teaching: Require structured teaching experiences for graduate TAs where career-appropriate; Graduate school workshops in pedagogy and uses of instructional technology; expanded PFF program. Responsible conduct of research training extended to all Ph.D. students in all disciplines Field-specific symposia to introduce career options to Ph.D. students Enhanced student services; strong investment in subsidizing child care for graduate students Best Practices charter for faculty, students, Grad School
