[hide]Description
The Science and Engineering PhD and PostDoc Survey is a longitudinal online study conducted by Henry Sauermann and Michael Roach among doctoral candidates and postdoctoral researchers at tier-1 U.S. research institutions. The sampling frame was obtained based National Science Foundation’s reports on earned doctorates (2008). The study focusses on 39 U.S. research universities with large doctoral programs in science and engineering fields. The contact list was developed by hand-collecting names and email addresses from listings provided on departments’ websites (Sauermann & Roach, 2012b[1]). The final sample used for this study includes 24,651 individuals, covering 9 broad science and engineering fields.
