pure mathematics
0-5 not counting thesis at a paper

0, we're all associate degree holders

1. Mathematical signal processing.
2. Maybe 3-5 papers for a 4 year PhD and then you need both MSc and BSc to even start it. Not very uncommon those 4 years become 5, 6 or even more.

Math

Iono I guess 3-5 judging from the other guys but that sounds like a lot for actually substantial papers

Philosophy
10 ~

3-5 is probably a lot if you are doing novel work in pure mathematics. I am mostly combining slightly harder than MSc level linear algebra, probability, optimization into computer programs and evaluating if it seems to work on some data and how well it does.

A pure math guy is probably taking more theoretically advanced courses for start and then bashing his head against one or a few theorems to prove. That makes quantity difficult to achieve.

>>8162141
Yeah. Usually the papers pure math PhD students put out are just small toy problems unrelated to the thesis work, which should actually be novel.

>>8162161
Or papers of partial results, and whether you write and publish those comes down to how lazy/lucky you are respectively.

Plasma Physics
1-3

>>8162161
In engineering the thesis is often first an introduction explaining what is needed to understand the field and the theory required to understand the papers and then the papers at the end. So most of the work on getting the papers to work and become accepted somewhere and then try and wrap everything up at the end.

Graph theory

10

I think this is a problem. A lot of the student publish useless papers, and a lot of the recruiting process mainly look at how many papers you have.

>>8161900
1. Don't have a designated field yet, just finished a double degree in applied physics and engineering.
2. 0 because bachelors

was idiot retard both formulas pulled from behind

Chemical Engineering
You need a minimum of 3 at my university, usually people get 3-5 out with a typical PhD taking 3-6 years to graduating including years doing masters coursework etc.

>>8162161
>unrelated to the thesis work
So you don't publish the work the work in your thesis in journals directly? Our thesis is more or less a highly detailed version of all our publications.
