^a Ethnicity and race categories are as designated on survey form. Hispanic or Latino may be of any race or unreported race. American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian, black or African American, white, and Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander are single race and not Hispanic. More than one race includes doctorate recipients who are not Hispanic and indicated more than one race category. Race unknown includes doctorate recipients who are not Hispanic and did not indicate their race. Ethnicity unknown includes doctorate recipients who did not indicate their ethnicity (whether or not they indicated their race). Ethnicity and race categories include U.S. citizens and foreign citizens on permanent visas (i.e., resident aliens who have been admitted for permanent residency).
