The Survey of Doctorate Recipients (SDR) is a survey of individuals who received a doctoral degree in science, engineering, or health (SEH) from a U.S.-institution. The SDR represents doctorate-degree holders who are working, retired, seeking work, or in some other situation. This study provides the only data on the education and training, work experiences, and career development of the U.S.-trained doctoral population. The SDR is a unique source of information about the educational and occupational achievements and career movement of U.S.-trained doctoral scientists and engineers in the United States and abroad.
