Primary Research Group Inc. has published the Survey of STEM Faculty in Higher Education, Working with Faculty & Students from China, ISBN 979-8-88517-229-5
This study looks at how US higher education faculty are dealing with increasing restrictions in the USA on employment of and cooperation with scholars and students from China. The study helps its readers to answer questions such as: What percentage of American scientifically oriented scholars have worked with Chinese scholars? Students? What percentage have shared authorial credit with a scholar or student from China? What do they think of the restrictions and limitations that the US Federal Government has placed on cooperation with Chinese nationals in science and research? Are policies too restrictive, inhibiting good science, or not restrictive enough, harming national security?
Just a few of this 54-page report’s many findings are that:
-
Males were nearly three times more likely than women to know of instances of foreign students being expelled due to their failure to disclose a relationship with a foreign military, university or government organization.
-
By race or ethnicity, Asian origin scholars were more likely than others to feel that risks of working with China were being overestimated; more than 30% felt this way.
-
13.3% of scholars surveyed want more or much more collaboration with Chinese scholars and students.
Data in the report is broken out by many institutional and personal variables, enabling the study’s end users to pinpoint US-Chinese scholarly scientific cooperation by gender, ethnicity, academic field, level of lifetime grant receipts and other institutional and personal characteristics of the survey participants. Data is based on a survey of 339 faculty, drawn predominantly from research universities and medical schools.
