About the Statistical Research Center
The Statistical Research Center was formerly called the Education and Employment
Statistics Division. We conduct research and provide survey services. Within
the research portion of our mission, we collect, analyze and disseminate data
on education and employment in physics and related fields. We are your source
for reliable data on:
- Enrollments and degrees at all levels of education in physics, astronomy
and related fields from high school through the PhD.
- Demographic profiles of physics faculty in high schools, 2-year colleges,
4-year colleges, and universities.
- Common career paths of physicists and astronomers with bachelor's degrees,
master's degrees or PhDs.
- Workforce dynamics including unemployment, underemployment, staff turnover,
retirement and the number of positions available.
- Issues that cut across education and employment such as the representation
of women and minorities in physics and related fields.
We also contract with professional societies to carry out surveys on topics
of particular concern to their organizations. Such surveys include:
- Profiles of professional society membership.
- Studies of the benefits of society membership.
- Surveys of targeted groups such as magazine readers, journal authors
and conference participants.
- Salaries and employment prospects in specific fields.
