944 NOTICES OF THE AMS VOLUME 58, NUMBER 7 2010 Annual Survey of the Mathematical Sciences in the U.S. Richard Cleary is a professor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Bentley University. James W. Maxwell is AMS associate executive director for special projects. Colleen A. Rose is AMS survey analyst. Report on the 2009-2010 New Doctoral Recipients Richard Cleary, James W. Maxwell, and Colleen Rose This report presents a statistical profile of recipients of doctoral degrees awarded by departments in the mathematical sciences at universities in the United States during the period July 1, 2009, through June 30, 2010. All information in the report was provided over the summer and fall of 2010 by the departments that awarded the degrees with information provided by the individual new doctoral recipients. The report includes an analysis of the fall 2010 employment plans of 2009–2010 doctoral recipients and a demographic profile summarizing characteristics of citizenship status, sex, and racial/ethnic group. This report provides a more extensive look at the 2009–2010 new doctorates and includes information about 2009-2010 doctoral recipients that were not included in the preliminary report. Detailed information, including tables which traditionally appeared in this report, is available on the AMS website at www.ams.org/annual-survey/survey-reports. 1,632 Ph.D.s were awarded by the 299 doctoral-granting departments that we surveyed. For the first time ever we had a 100% response rate. The 292 departments responding both this year and last year reported a total of 1,625 new doctoral recipients, an increase of 20 over the 1,605 new doctoral recipients they reported last year. Again considering only the 292 departments responding both years, the twenty-three departments in Group 1 Private responding to both surveys reported 52 fewer new doctoral recipients for 2010, 225 for 2009-2010 compared to 173 for 2008-2009. (See page 954 for a description of the department groupings.) 35% (568) of the new Ph.D.s had a dissertation in statistics/ biostatistics, followed by algebra/number theory (230) and applied mathematics (229) both with 14%.

The starting salary figures were compiled from information gathered on the EENDR questionnaires sent to1,476 individuals using addresses provided by the departments granting the degrees; 802 individuals respondedbetween late October and April. Responses with insufficient data or from individuals who indicated they hadpart-time or non-U.S. employment were excluded. Numbers of usable responses for each salary category arereportedinthefollowingtables.
