摘要

目前，计算机科学专业的教师数量太少，无法满足学生的需求，而来自历史上少数群体的教师人数严重不足。扩大从社区学院到博士的途径是计算机科学教授队伍增长和多样化的一个重要途径，但这一途径尚未得到充分探索。为了深入了解这些途径，本现象学研究对社区学院计算机科学专业的转学生进行了访谈，以考察他们如何将博士学习概念化为其学术轨迹的一部分。研究结果强调了一些经历（如担任辅导员），这些经历促进了这群多元化的优秀学生对博士学位的早期兴趣。

"That Sounds like Something Geniuses Do": Exploring How Vertical Transfer Computing Students Conceptualize PhD Pathways

There are currently too few computer science faculty to meet student demand, and faculty from historically minoritized groups are severely underrepresented. Expanding pathways from community colleges to PhDs is one critical avenue to both grow and diversify the computer science professoriate that has been underexplored. To gain insight into these pathways, this phenomenological study utilizes interviews with community college transfer students in computer science to examine how they conceptualize PhD study as part of their academic trajectories. Findings highlight experiences (e.g., serving as a tutor) that promote early interest in PhDs among this diverse and talented group of students.

期刊介绍： The official journal of the Association for the Study of Higher Education (ASHE), The Review of Higher Education provides a forum for discussion of issues affecting higher education. The journal advances the study of college and university issues by publishing peer-reviewed articles, essays, reviews, and research findings. Its broad approach emphasizes systematic inquiry and practical implications. Considered one of the leading research journals in the field, The Review keeps scholars, academic leaders, and public policymakers abreast of critical issues facing higher education today.
