NSF GSS BY DEGREE TOTAL
NSF Graduate Student Support. This is a fact table for the aggregation for post doctorate students (both Post Doc and Non-Faculty Research Staff) by degree type. It contains a record for a count of Post Doc or Non-Faculty Research Staff, by degree type (PhD or PhD Med), for each school in an institution for a fiscal year. The count in each record represents the "TOTAL", not a break-down by funding source.
