Description |
The shortage of doctoral graduates in accounting is evidence of a problem in the industry as a whole. While demand is up for all accounting graduates, supply is insufficient. This article examines the academic accounting industry as a whole, using a macro perspective to analyze data about doctoral graduates and programs, in order to identify positive and negative attributes of the market and identify further areas for inquiry. Uniquely detailed data on U.S. accounting doctoral graduates 1987-2006 are used in the analysis. Specific trends are identified and future avenues for research are also addressed.
