An Assessment of Research-Doctorate Programs in the United States
A number of other criticisms have been leveled at reputational rankings of graduate programs.10 First, such studies inherently reflect perceptions that may be several years out of date and do not take into account recent changes in a program. Second, the ratings of individual programs are likely to be influenced by the overall reputation of the university—i.e., an institutional “halo effect.” Also, a disproportionately large fraction of the evaluators are graduates of and/or faculty members in the largest programs, which may bias the survey results. Finally, on the basis of such studies it may not be possible to differentiate among many of the lesser known programs in which relatively few faculty members have established national reputations in research.
