PSU’s Graduating Class of 2012-13 By the Numbers

Portland State’s 2012-13 graduating class is one of the largest and most diverse the university has ever seen—and that’s especially true of the university’s departing undergraduates.

Portland State’s 2012-13 graduating class is one of the largest and most diverse the university has ever seen—and that’s especially true of the university’s departing undergraduates.

The number of bachelor’s degrees awarded this year is almost 2 percent higher than it has ever been. And while growth in the university’s awarded master’s degrees was flat, Ph.D. graduates can easily claim their largest-ever graduating class this year.

The whole of PSU’s 2012-13 class has students from 50 countries and 49 states plus the District of Columbia. Delaware is the only state lacking representation in this year’s crop of graduates.

Domestically, more out-of-state graduates hail from Washington state than anywhere else, with California a close second.

The bulk of the university’s international graduates this year come from Saudi Arabia, China, India, Thailand and Vietnam. International graduates are receiving nearly 5 percent of this year’s bachelor’s degrees, 11 percent of master’s degrees and 27 percent of the Ph.D.s awarded this year.
