Tennessee Graduate Schools: Building the Workforce for the Future
Tennessee Conference of Graduate Schools

Why Tennessee Needs to Support Graduate Education
• Given: Individuals in Tennessee with a graduate education earn more than those with a bachelor’s alone or no college degree.
• Given: Tennessee’s demand for workers with graduate, doctoral and professional degrees is projected to grow by 18% by 2022.
• Tennessee graduate degree production is insufficient to meet labor force demands.
• Tennessee lags in total higher education R&D expenditures, which drives graduate education.
• Modest increases in graduate education will return billions in increased earnings and tax revenue to Tennessee.

Benefits of More MAs, Professionals, and Ph.D.s
• Increased Worklife– MA degree results in nearly 2 years more over a Bachelor’s.– PROF/PHD results in almost 4 years more than a Bachelor’s.
• Increased Earnings– Over a worklife, an MA degree results in $927,386 more than a Bachelor’s degree.– Similarly, a professional/Ph.D. degree results in $2.4 million more than a
Bachelor’s degree.• Increased Tax Payments to State and Local Governments
– Vs. a Bachelor’s degree, 1,000 more MA graduates in TN would result in $3.5 billion more tax revenue to TN over their expected worklives, or a net present value of $1.6 billion.
– Vs. a Bachelor’s degree, 1,000 more PROF/PHD graduates would result in $5.0 billion more tax in tax revenue over their expected worklives, or a net present value of $2.7 billion.
31
Why Support Graduate Educationin Tennessee?
• More Graduate Education leads to:– Greater productivity;– Lower unemployment;– Higher incomes and a higher standard of living;– Additional tax revenue for Tennessee.
• A better workforce plus more R & D expenditures will result in more employers and increased opportunities for all Tennessee residents.
