                    A Brief Summary of the NRC Rankings

                                H.J. Newton

     Professor of Statistics and Executive Associate Dean of College of
                                  Science
                            Texas A&M University

   During the discussions leading to the 1997 Texas A&M College of
   Science Strategic Plan, I prepared a brief report summarizing the
   recent NRC rankings. Enough people have asked me for copies of this
   report that I decided to expand it, convert it to HTML, and put it on
   my web page. Feel free to contact me at jnewton@stat.tamu.edu if you
   have questions or comments.

   The 1995 National Research Council report ``Research-Doctorate
   Programs in the United States: Continuity and Change'' summarizes the
   results of a survey performed in 1993. The basic message of my summary
   is that despite the great progress made by Texas A&M over the past
   three or four decades in the area of nationally visible research
   activities, the university has a long way to go to join the ranks of
   the leading national universities as it ranks somewhere around 50th of
   such universities, somewhere between 20th and 26th of public
   universities, and somewhere between fourth and sixth among what I call
   ``narrowly focused'' land grant universities.

   This summary includes a number of summary tables including:
     * Texas A&M Rankings
     * Land Grant University Rankings
     * Public University Rankings
     * Top 60 Universities
     * Alphabetical list of 136 universities rated in at least 10 areas
     * Rankings by five main areas
     * Alphabetical list of 136 universitie rankings in five main areas
