Definition: Social assistance, Real GSP (chained 2000 dollars) GSP, or Gross State Product is the value of all the goods and services produced in a state. Specific industries measured will give the value of all goods and services in that industry. The Nominal Gross State Product measures the value of all the goods and services produced expressed in current prices. On the other hand, Real Gross State Product measures the value of all the goods and services produced expressed in the prices of some base year. This is the number of doctors' degrees awarded. A doctorate is the highest award a student can earn for graduate study. The doctor's degree classification includes such degrees as Doctor of Education, Doctor of Juridical Science, Doctor of Public Health, and the Doctor of Philosophy degree in any field such as agronomy, food technology, education, engineering, public administration, ophthalmology, or radiology.
