ITW: Retention of Women and Minorities in the IT Workforce

机构：佐治亚州立大学研究基金会，Inc.建议编号：EIA 0089995 PI：Paula E.StephanTitle：保留IT劳动力中的女性和少数族裔这项CESE信息技术劳动力(ITW)提案要求提供资金，以研究受过IT培训或在IT职业生涯中就业的女性和代表性不足的少数族裔是否有不同的保留率和升级率。这项研究还考察了未受过IT培训的人被吸纳到IT工作中的比例是否因性别和少数民族身份而有所不同。这项研究将使用NSF的SESTAT数据库，这是一个全面、综合的数据库，包含了一段时间内拥有至少学士学位的科学家和工程师的就业、教育和人口统计特征的信息。该项目有可能为保留和提升IT行业中女性和代表性不足的少数群体提供有价值的见解。

Institution: Georgia State University Research Foundation, Inc.Proposal Number: EIA 0089995PI: Paula E. StephanTitle: Retention of Women and Minorities in the IT WorkforceThis CISE Information Technology Workforce (ITW) proposal requests funds to study whether women and underrepresented minorities either trained in IT or employed in IT careers have different rates of retention and advancement. The study also examines whether the rate by which individuals not trained in IT are absorbed into IT jobs differs by gender and minority status. The study will use the NSF's SESTAT database, which is a comprehensive, integrated database containing information over time on the employment, educational, and demographic characteristics of scientists and engineers who possess at least a bachelor's degree. This project has the potential to provide valuable insights about the retention and advancement of women and underrepresented minorities in IT careers.
