Fig. 3: The minimum, median, and maximum graduate-to-faculty transition (GFT) rates for 10 schools that have annually graduated at least one mathematics Ph.D. student who became a doctoral-granting (DG) faculty member in a department in one of the 150 departments we considered between 1950 and 2015.

All three measures decrease, but the maximum GFT rate most sharply declines between the years of 1950-2015.
