Educational Background of Professors

It is possible to become a Computer Science Professor without a Doctorate degree. But 99.72% of professors in the data have a Ph.D., so you may be at a slight disadvantage if your highest degree is a Masters. The data provides us a look into what universities a professor received their education. Where did they get their bachelors and doctorate degrees? If a graduate from a university is listed in spreadsheet, I call it a "placement".

The below table shows universities whose doctoral graduates make up at least 1% of professors on the list. Over 20% of professors received their Ph.D. from MIT or Berkeley, while more than half of professors received their Ph.D. from the 10 universities. Note how closely the ranking of total placements from the Ph.D. granting institution matches the US News Computer Science Rankings.

However, it's obvious that some departments are smaller and thus tend to graduate fewer doctoral students. The fourth column (placement ratio) shows the number of Ph.D. students that go on to become a professor normalized by the size of the department. In other words, the average number of a professor's Ph.D. graduates who become professors.

For bachelors degrees our data is less complete, but for the professors who we have data, here is where they completed their undergraduate education:
