Collection description

This collection (1994-1995) contains two published articles which trace the doctoral productivity of women doctorates in the physical sciences and engineering for the years 1976 through 1992. They examine the relationship between women doctoral students and their institution, and the impact of women's colleges and institutions on their careers. The authors then call for further research into the gender balance ratio and the doctoral success rate.
