The section “ S&E Higher Education in the United States” draws on data and sources in the forthcoming Indicators 2022 report, “ Higher Education in Science and Engineering.” The Higher Education report also provides further breakout by sex and race or ethnicity. They also tend to be more prevalent in the southern and western regions of the United States.Īlthough some students transition directly from high school to the STEM labor force, the nation’s S&E enterprise depends heavily on recipients of higher education degrees in S&E fields (see Glossary section for list of S&E fields). Hispanic may be any race race categories exclude Hispanic origin. For Figure 3, minority enrollment includes students who are Black, Hispanic, Asian, Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander, American Indian or Alaska Native, and more than one race. In 2018, STEM teachers with less than 3 years of experience were more prevalent at schools with high-minority or high-poverty populations ( Figure 3). Teacher qualifications vary across student demographic groups and U.S. Detailed notes for Figure 2 are available in Figure K12-2 in the Indicators 2022 report, “ Elementary and Secondary STEM Education.” Asian students consistently outperformed all other groups in both grades 4 and 8. Among fourth graders in 2019, scores in mathematics were 18–25 points lower for students in these racial or ethnic minority groups than for White students this gap was even wider (24–32 points) among eighth-graders ( Figure 2). Mathematics scores for Black, Hispanic, Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander, and American Indian or Alaska Native students persistently lag behind the scores of their White and Asian peers. This low international ranking of the United States in mathematics is consistent with the lack of improvement in student achievement for more than a decade.
