Professor Marschke wins NSF grant to study COVID's impact on the U.S. STEM workforce

Gerald Marschke

Professor Marschke has received a one year, $200,000 grant from the National Science Foundation to investigate the impact of COVID-19 on the U.S. STEM workforce. This project will (1) measure how much of the STEM workforce is able to continue work and in which occupations and industries during the COVID-19 pandemic, (2) model the likely effect of the COVID-19 work disruption and economic recession on STEM workers and the STEM labor market, and (3) inform policies that can ameliorate the effects of pandemics on STEM workers.
