Went on to a research doctorate
0.1per 100 bachelor's graduatesU.S. average: 2.0
From 2016 to 2025, 18 Savannah College of Art and Design graduates earned a research doctorate, most often in social sciences, education, and humanities and arts.
Research doctorates (PhD, EdD and similar) only: medical, law and business degrees aren't counted. The rate divides those doctorates by the bachelor's degrees Savannah College of Art and Design awarded from 2008 to 2017, allowing for the typical eight-year gap; fields with longer paths, like the humanities, read low.
