AGENCY:
ACTION:
Under the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, and as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork
and respondent burden, the National
Center for Science and Engineering
Statistics (NCSES) within the National
Science Foundation (NSF) is inviting
the general public or other Federal
agencies to comment on this proposed
continuing information collection. The
NCSES will publish periodic summaries
of the proposed projects.
DATES: Written comments on this notice
must be received by December 28, 2018
to be assured consideration. Comments
received after that date will be
considered to the extent practicable.
Send comments to the address listed in

techniques or other forms of information
technology; and (d) ways to minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology.
Title of Collection: Survey of Earned
Doctorates.
OMB Approval Number: 3145–0019.
Expiration Date of Approval: May 31,
2020.
Type of Request: Intent to seek
approval to renew an information
collection for three years.
Abstract: Established within NSF by
the America COMPETES
Reauthorization Act of 2010 § 505,
codified in the NSF Act of 1950, as
amended, NCSES serves as a central
Federal clearinghouse for the collection,
interpretation, analysis, and
dissemination of objective data on
science, engineering, technology, and
research and development for use by
practitioners, researchers, policymakers,
and the public.
The Survey of Earned Doctorates
(SED) is part of NCSES’ survey system
that collects data on individuals in an
effort to provide information on science
and engineering education and careers
in the United States. The SED has been
conducted annually since 1958 and is
jointly sponsored by the National
Science Foundation, National Institutes
of Health, U.S. Department of
Education, and National Endowment for
the Humanities in order to avoid
duplication. It is an accurate, timely
source of information on one of our
Nation’s most important resources—
highly educated individuals.
Data are obtained primarily via Web
survey from each person earning a
research doctorate at the time they
receive the degree. Data are collected on
their field of specialty, educational
background, sources of support in
graduate school, debt level,
postgraduation plans, and demographic
characteristics. The Federal government,
universities, researchers, and others use
the information extensively. NCSES
publishes statistics from the survey in
several reports, primarily in the annual
publication series Doctorate Recipients
from U.S. Universities. These reports are
available on the NCSES website. The
survey will be collected in conformance
with the Privacy Act of 1974. Responses
from individuals are voluntary. NCSES
will ensure that all individually
identifiable information collected will
be kept strictly confidential and will be
used only for research or statistical
purposes.

Use of the Information: Results from
the SED are used to assess
characteristics of the doctorate
population and trends in doctoral
education and degrees by researchers,
policy makers, universities, and
government agencies. Data from the
survey are published annually on the
NCSES website in a publication series
reporting on all fields of study, titled
Doctorate Recipients from U.S.
Universities. Information from the SED
is also included in other series available
online: Science and Engineering
Indicators; and Women, Minorities, and
Persons with Disabilities in Science and
Engineering. In addition, access to
tabular data from selected variables is
available through Integrated Data Tool,
an online table-generating tool on the
NCSES website.
Expected Respondents: The SED is a
census of all individuals receiving a
research doctorate from an accredited
U.S. academic institution in the
academic year beginning 1 July and
ending 30 June of the subsequent year.
As such, the population for the 2020
SED consists of all individuals receiving
a research doctorate in the 12-month
period beginning 1 July 2019 and
ending 30 June 2020. Likewise, the
population for the 2021 SED consists of
all individuals receiving a research
doctorate in the 12-month period
beginning 1 July 2020 and ending 30
June 2021. A research doctorate is a
doctoral degree that (1) requires
completion of an original intellectual
contribution in the form of a
dissertation or an equivalent
culminating project (e.g., musical
composition) and (2) is not primarily
intended as a degree for the practice of
a profession. The most common
research doctorate degree is the Ph.D.
Recipients of professional doctoral
degrees, such as MD, DDS, JD, DPharm,
and PsyD, are not included in the SED.
The 2020 and 2021 SED are expected to
include about 606 separately reporting
doctoral programs from among
approximately 446 eligible research
doctorate-granting institutions.
Estimate of Burden: A total response
rate of 91.4% of the 54,664 persons who
earned a research doctorate from a U.S.
institution was obtained in academic
year 2017. This level of response rate
has been consistent for several years.
Based on the historical trend, in 2020
approximately 58,000 individuals are
expected to receive research doctorates
from U.S. institutions. Using the past
response rate, the number of SED
respondents in 2020 is estimated to be
52,780 (58,000 doctorate recipients ×
0.91 response rate). Similarly, the
number of individuals expected to earn
