1 Diversity in Science and Engineering Employment in Industry Jaqui C. Falkenheim, Ph.D. National Center for Science and Engineering Statistics National Science Foundation www.nsf.gov/statistics Creating a Game-Changing Environment for All in the Industrial Workforce May 21, 2012

2 Diversity in the industrial science and engineering (S&E) workforce 2 How diverse is the industrial S&E workforce compared to the U.S. S&E workforce and the U.S. resident population? Do different groups (men/women, race/ethnicity groups) of scientists and engineers employed in industry vary by: Highest educational degree? Occupation? Primary/secondary work activities? Managerial status?

3 Data Source: 2008 SESTAT 3 The Scientists and Engineers Statistical Data System (SESTAT) consists of three workforce surveys of individuals conducted by NSF: National Survey of College Graduates (NSCG) National Survey of Recent College Graduates (NSRCG) National Survey of Doctorate Recipients (SDR) Demographic, employment and educational data on scientists and engineers in the U.S., as of October 1 2008. 100,000+ survey respondents +19M scientists and engineers are represented Trained or working in S&E or S&E-related fields or occupations

4 Data Source: 2008 SESTAT (cont.) 4 ClassificationDegree fieldsOccupations S&EBiological, agricultural, and environmental life sciences Computer and mathematical sciences Physical sciences Social sciences Engineering Biological, agricultural, and environmental life scientists Computer and mathematical scientists Physical scientists Social scientists Engineers S&E postsecondary teachers S&E-relatedHealth fields Science and math teacher education Technology and technical fields Architecture Actuarial science Health-related occupations S&E managers S&E precollege teachers S&E technicians and technologists Architects Actuaries S&E-related postsecondary teachers

5 19 million scientists and engineers were employed in the United States in 2008 5 4.9 million employed in S&E occupations 5.5 employed in S&E related occupations 8.8 million employed in non-S&E occupations with S&E or S&E related degrees 53% of these scientists and engineers worked in industry—10.2 million. “Industry” is defined as for-profit organizations, but excludes educational institutions
