Description
Daniel Majerczyk and co-authors track, in a 2023 study, how diverse the pipeline of United States health professions students is, from application to graduation. A workforce that mirrors the nation is a stated goal, and schools are where that workforce takes shape.
The team gathered self-reported data from 2003 to 2019 across medicine, osteopathic medicine, dentistry, and pharmacy programs. They followed race, ethnic background, and sex at three points: applicants, enrolled students, and degree holders. Groups classed as underrepresented were compared with their share of the general population. The long span shows where gains held, where they stalled, and where students from minority groups left the pipeline.
