Abstract: 

In this report we present the results of an international research study on the training of researchers in mathematics education. The study was carried out by some members of The International Study Group on Theory of Mathematics Education. The research involved developing a questionnaire which was mailed to numerous institutions all over the world and the analysis of the answers which were received. The main objective of the study was to collect international data about the training of reserachers in mathematics education and to establish an information network about graduate programs in the field. A total of about 150 questionnaires were sent out and 78 answers received. Fifteen of these answers came from universities that wish to participate in the network although they do not have a program at present.

The CAUSE Research Group is supported in part by a member initiative grant from the American Statistical Association’s Section on Statistics and Data Science Education
