PETER SYVERSON, M.S., is Vice President for Research
and Information Services at the Council of Graduate Schools.
He has been involved in the higher education policy commu-
nity in Washington for the past two decades. He is respon-
sible for the research activities of the Council, which include
directing the national CGS/GRE Survey of Graduate Enroll-
ment, the preparation of reports and articles that summarize
CGS data, other research that bears on graduate education,
and representing the Council on a number of advisory com-
mittees involved in the conduct of national studies of U.S.
higher education. He began his career in 1975 at the National
Academy of Sciences where he directed the Survey of
Earned Doctorates, the national survey of all new doctorate
recipients. As Project Director, Peter worked to transform
the annual Summary Report from a set of statistical hich-
lights to a policy-research document. He led the project
through the transition from a paper-based questionnaire pro-
cessing system to a computer-based system. At the Council
of Graduate Schools he established the Council's first office
of research and working with the GRE Board, he developed
a new Survey of Graduate Enrollment. That survey, now in
its tenth year, has become a respected source of information
on trends in graduate enrollment and application for gradu-
ate study. His primary research interests involve the flow of
individuals into and through graduate education and the labor
market experiences of advanced-degree recipients.
