Early lists of economics Ph.D. degrees awarded by Harvard (1875-1926) and the University of Chicago (1894-1926) have been posted earlier. Duke University awarded its first Ph.D. in economics in 1932. The department published a survey of its 45 Ph.D. alumni in its October 1957 departmental newsletter that is transcribed below. Year the Ph.D. was awarded, employment in 1957, some employment history,  and sample publications are included.

The first few pages of this NEWSLETTER are devoted to the activities of these 45 Doctors of Philosophy in economics. The response to the questionnaire distributed last summer was so abundant that it has proved impossible to report all the data submitted. In particular, the editor has had to pare publications lists in order to keep the NEWSLETTER   within reasonable bounds. It is his hope that its contents nevertheless fairly represent the varied research interests and the wide experiences of our graduates in university, business, and government employment. By the way of preface to the Ph.D. and M.A. rolls [Note: M.A. rolls not included in this post] Professor Hoover has the following greeting for former graduate students in economics:

To all who have been graduate students in Economics at Duke:

            This occasion of the twenty-fifth anniversary of Duke University’s granting of the first Ph.D. in Economics coincides with the beginning of my thirty-third year at Duke University and with the relinquishment of the Chairmanship of the Department after twenty years’ service. My association with our graduate students has been the closer since for ten years I also served as Dean of the Graduate School. This was in like manner true of my predecessor, Dean W. H. Glasson, who laid the foundations of graduate work in our Department and in the University. We are fortunate in having as the new Chairman of the Department, Dr. Frank de Vyver who has for so long helped so efficiently in carrying on the administrative duties of the Department. Dr. R. S. Smith is currently acting as Director of Graduate Studies in place of Dr. Joseph Spengler, who continues to contribute so much to our program of graduate training and research. Dr. Spengler has a Ford Fellowship for the present academic year.

            We are gratified with the recognition which the research work and graduate teaching of our faculty has received during the past years. It is upon your accomplishments and attainments since leaving Duke, however, that we depend in large degree for our standing in the academic world. We are grateful to you and our best wishes are always with you.

Sincerely
Calvin B. Hoover
