Here, we highlight the scholarly activity of faculty in Computer Science departments at Ph.D. granting universities in the US. The Academic Analytics database from which these data derive contains scholarly activity data describing 7,314 faculty members in 325 Computer Science departments at 302 universities (database version AAD2023-2658).
