Abstract
CAMBRIDGE.-The annual report of the Board of Research Studies shows a further slight increase in the number of students working for research degrees, the increase coming mainly from the graduates of the University of Cambridge itself. Trinity and Emmanuel Colleges lead the field in the number of such students, with Newnham, St. John's, Gonville and Caius, and Christ's Colleges coming next on the list. On the whole, there is a tendency for the numbers to increase in all the colleges. The subjects of study most prominently represented are physics, mathematics, physical chemistry, botany, English, history, agriculture, and biochemistry. More than one-third of the students are now Cambridge graduates, the greater number from outside coming from the universities of the United States, Australia, Canada, Wales, and London.
