    The National Center for Science and Engineering Statistics (NCSES) within the National Science Foundation is planning to renew the Survey of Doctorate Recipients (SDR). This survey gathers data on people with doctorates in science, engineering, and health from U.S. institutions to understand their employment, education, and demographics. The survey will use web surveys and phone interviews starting in June 2025 and aims for a sample size of 116,000 individuals, expecting a 70% response rate. The information collected helps create important reports and is also available for researchers, while ensuring the participants' confidentiality.
