I'm researching study aids for US college students and need to
understand how many students study which course titles. I'm really
interested in identifying the top 6 - 12 course titles, so I can focus
my marketing efforts on those. A really great answer would tell me
something like this : 75% of students fall into one of the following 6
categories - a,b,c,d,e,f - with 15% studying subject a, 12% studying
subject b (etc).
Thanks for getting back to me.
I can provide information that looks like this, for about a dozen
major fields of study:
==========
Number of degrees conferred in 2003:
Bachelor's Master's Doctoral
All fields, total .................1,348,503 512,645 46,024
Biological and biomedical sciences ..........60,072 6,990 5,003
Business, management, marketing, etc .......293,545 127,545 1,251
Communication and commun. technologies .......69,792 6,495 398
Computer/information sciences and support ....57,439 19,503 816
...and so on, for about eight other major categories.

The difficulty I have is that the numbers of graduates are so small
compared to the total number of post-secondary students (17 million)
published by the NCES.
I'm in the process of putting together a business plan relating to
study aids for the US market, so I need to udnerstand what these 17
million students are studying, at what level. Breakdowns of 1.5
million graduates are clearly missing a significant potential market first time home buyer::

In order to focus any study aids I would need more detailed breakdown.
Given that there are 17 million 'college' students in the US, it would
appear that there are courses other than Bachelor's, Master's and PhD
to consider. I'm writing from outside the US and therefore need to
understand how these 17 million are distributed. Hope this helps.
I don't really understand just what you're stuggling with, in terms of
understanding the data.
I'll say this, though. There are enormously detailed statistics
available on the number of college graduates each year, and their
fields of study.
The number of graduates, of course, is smaller than the total number
of students, but their fields of study certainly reflect the overall
student population.
Please let me know, as clearly as you can, what information you'd like
at this point. If I can provide it, I certainly will.

Hi pafalafa-ga,
That would be helpful. I'm still struggling to understand what the
other 'post-secondary' students are studying, though - as these make
up the vast majority of US students, it's too big a market to ignore
