NSF collects data on Science and Engineering education and research and makes it available through their WebCASPAR system. We’ve used this to generate statistics on Computer Science degree production. In 1998 we generated data that showed that UMBC was producing more CS degrees than other US peer institutions in the mid 1990s. We’ve just updated the figures which show that among US research universities in 2004, UMBC ranks number three for Computer Science degrees produced.
