Peterson's Gradline

covers all accredited institutions in the United States and Canada offering postbaccalaureate degrees.The database contains three kinds of records: 1) institution records, 2) unit records, and 3) directory records. There are over 1,500 institution records, and each of the graduate programs at these institutions is represented by one of 28,000 unit records. Every unit record is coded to reflect its position within the administrative hierarchy of its parent institution and assigned to one or more of 300 academic disciplines.

Institution records give the name, location, size, and type of the school, as well as data on faculty, student services, and research facilities. Every unit record lists the actual program name, administrative head, and degree concentrations. Unit records also have fields for the number of faculty and appointments, research budgets, and focus of faculty research. Directory records contain generic desciptions of over 300 graduate programs, including data on the number of degrees granted and enrollment figures with ethnic breakdowns.

Gradline (Silverplatter) is a different implementation of the same data.
