尽管有许多举措来提高工程专业研究生和教师的多样性，但在这两个群体中，来自少数种族背景的人的比例几乎没有变化。目的/假设本文的目的是反对稀缺性谬论，在这种谬论中，机构将来自传统边缘化背景的合格人才的“短缺”归咎于自己缺乏代表性，这与来自传统边缘化群体的潜在博士生和潜在教师有关。本研究确定了黑人/非裔美国人和西班牙裔/拉丁裔工程博士获得者从学士到博士和从博士到终身教职的制度路径。设计/方法利用美国获得博士学位调查，我们追踪了3952名黑人/非裔美国人和5732名西班牙裔/拉丁裔工程博士毕业生从学士到博士的机构路径。我们还使用博士学位获得者调查来跟踪104名黑人/非裔美国人和211名西班牙裔/拉丁裔教师从博士到终身教职的路径。结果在本研究中，大多数黑人/非裔美国人和西班牙裔/拉丁裔博士毕业生不是在排名前25位的院校获得学士学位，而是在排名前25位的非美国和少数族裔院校获得学士学位。研究结果还显示，从排名靠前的大学获得学士学位后进入排名靠前的大学的博士学位获得者和教职员工所占比例相对较小。本研究的发现对研究生和教师招聘具有重要意义，因为它说明了从少数机构（即排名前25位的机构）招聘不太可能导致少数种族的工程博士和教师的多样性增加。
BackgroundDespite many initiatives to improve graduate student and faculty diversity in engineering, there has been little or no change in the percentage of people from racially minoritized backgrounds in either of these groups.Purpose/HypothesisThe purpose of this paper is to counter the scarcity fallacy, in which institutions blame the “shortage” of qualified people from traditionally marginalized backgrounds for their own lack of representation, related to prospective PhD students and prospective faculty from traditionally marginalized groups. This study identifies the BS‐to‐PhD and PhD‐to‐tenure‐track‐faculty institutional pathways of Black/African American and Hispanic/Latino engineering doctorate recipients.Design/MethodUsing the US Survey of Earned Doctorates, we tracked the BS‐to‐PhD institutional pathways of 3952 Black/African American and 5732 Hispanic/Latino engineering PhD graduates. We also used the Survey of Doctorate Recipients to track the PhD‐to‐tenure‐track faculty pathways of 104 Black/African American and 211 Hispanic/Latino faculty.ResultsThe majority of Black/African American and Hispanic/Latino PhD graduates in this study did not earn their BS degrees from Top 25 institutions, but rather from Not Top 25, non‐US, and minority‐serving institutions. The results also show the relatively small proportion of PhD earners and faculty members who move into highly ranked institutions after earning a bachelor's degree from outside this set of institutions.ConclusionsThe findings of this study have important implications for graduate student and faculty recruitment by illustrating that recruitment from a narrow range of institutions (i.e., Top 25 institutions) is unlikely to result in increased diversity among racially minoritized PhDs and faculty in engineering.
