From 2016 to 2025, 104 The University of Texas at Tyler graduates earned a research doctorate, most often in biological and biomedical sciences, education, and physical sciences.
Research doctorates (PhD, EdD and similar) only: medical, law and business degrees aren't counted.

Median earnings: federally-aided graduates, ~4 years out (College Scorecard). Trajectory: 10-year projection from the life-path model with a synthetic profile — methodology.
Work in Texas: of graduates working and not in school a year after graduating, the share whose job is in Texas. Graduate degree or certificate: of graduates working and not in school five years after graduating, the share who had earned one. Anyone still in school isn't counted, so majors that lead to long graduate programs read low. A dash means the College Scorecard doesn't report the figure for that major, or counted fewer than 30 graduates.
