Abstract

From 1991 until the spring 1996, 2,800 doctoral degrees were conferred by Norwegian higher education institutions. Of these, 765 or slightly more than one fourth were taken in science and technology. Of these, 151 were classified under chemistry under the Faculties of Mathematics and Natural Sciences at Norwegian universities. In addition, 114 doctoral degrees were taken at the Faculty of Chemistry and Chemical Technology at the former Norwegian Institute of Technology, NTH, (from 1.1.1996 incorporated in the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, NTNU). Together, 265 doctorates were taken within chemistry at Norwegian universities.
