The titled Predictors of Students' Pursuit and Attainment of STEM Degrees Across Race and Gender Intersections examines the role of race and gender in students’ pursuit and success in STEM degrees. The research team, which includes co-investigator Dr. Joseph Cimpian, seeks to track and analyze how gender gaps in STEM fields develop over time, focusing on their intersections with race and ethnicity. The project is a subaward from the University of Texas San Antonio and funded by the Spencer Foundation.
