项目摘要
The project will advance scientists' understanding of STEM career trajectories by exploring the historical and contemporary role of the U.S. military as a potential career pathway. Specifically, the project analyzes the impact of educational benefits associated with military service (GI Bill), plus the role of individual and workplace factors on people's educational and occupational outcomes. Thus, the project addresses recurrent calls from the Federal Government and National Academy of Sciences to increase the number of STEM professionals, diversify the STEM workforce, and optimize the recruitment of military personnel. Findings from this project will help social scientists identify the long-term effects of policies and workplace dynamics on degrees and occupations. Findings will promote national defense and our ability to train the next generation of STEM scientists, because employers (from Departments of Defense and Commerce, Veterans Administration, to private-sector) are interested in hiring individuals with a military background, many of whom are poised to work in technical/defense fields and classified environments. Findings also will inform efforts to broaden STEM participation and identify potentially unanticipated consequences of federal policies designed to broaden access to higher education.The project addresses the following questions central to scientific literatures on education and occupations: How does military service and the educational benefits associated with it shape individuals? subsequent training and employment in STEM fields? How have era of service and changing GI Bill benefits affected STEM trajectories among veterans? How do organizational factors associated with specific military branches facilitate entry into STEM fields? How does using competing definitions of STEM fields employed by federal agencies affect the form and magnitude of the above patterns? To answer these questions, the project employs statistical analysis of publically available secondary data from the American Community Survey (ACS) and Department of Defense Demographic Reports. The result will be a newly merged public-use data set available to researchers that combines Census data with organizational data on the armed services. Analyses involve sophisticated statistical models on large samples: For instance, analyses of occupational trajectories include more than 5 million ACS respondents, including more than 700k veterans. ACS data also facilitate analysis of educational and occupational patterns among active-duty military personnel, who potentially constitute a prime target population for recruitment into STEM fields. The project also makes a methodological contribution by examining how various, competing ways to operationalize and measure "STEM" used by federal agencies shape conclusions about the scope and extent of the much-discussed shortage of STEM workers.
该项目将通过探索美国军方作为潜在职业途径的历史和当代作用来提高科学家对STEM职业轨迹的理解。具体而言,该项目分析了与兵役相关的教育福利的影响(GI法案),以及个人和工作场所因素对人们的教育和职业成果的作用。因此,该项目介绍了联邦政府和国家科学院的反复呼吁,要求增加STEM专业人员的数量,使STEM劳动力多样化并优化军事人员的招募。该项目的发现将帮助社会科学家确定政策和工作场所动态对学位和职业的长期影响。调查结果将促进国防和我们培训下一代STEM科学家的能力,因为雇主(从国防部,退伍军人管理部门,退伍军人管理部门到私营部门)有兴趣雇用具有军事背景的个人,其中许多人准备在技术/国防领域和机密环境中工作。调查结果还将为扩大STEM参与并确定旨在扩大高等教育机会的联邦政策的潜在意外后果的努力提供帮助。该项目解决了有关教育和职业科学文献的以下问题:兵役和与之相关的教育福利如何塑造个人?随后在STEM领域的培训和就业?服务时代和改变GI法案的时代如何利益受影响的退伍军人的STEM轨迹?与特定军事分支机构相关的组织因素如何促进进入STEM领域?使用联邦机构采用的STEM领域的竞争定义如何影响上述模式的形式和幅度? 为了回答这些问题,该项目对美国社区调查(ACS)和国防部人口统计报告的公开可用二级数据进行了统计分析。结果将是一个新合并的公共用途数据集,可用于研究人员,将人口普查数据与武装服务的组织数据相结合。分析涉及大型样本上的复杂统计模型:例如,对职业轨迹的分析包括超过500万AC受访者,包括超过70万退伍军人。 ACS数据还有助于分析现役军事人员之间的教育和职业模式,他们有可能构成招募STEM领域的主要目标人群。该项目还通过研究联邦机构使用的各种操作和衡量“ STEM”的方式来做出方法论上的贡献,塑造了关于STEM工人备受言论的范围和程度的结论。
