The NCWIT Scorecard is a place you can find data on trends in the participation in computing in the U.S. over time, by race and gender, providing a benchmark for measuring progress and identifying areas for improvement. NCWIT supplies these data visualizations for the computing community free of charge. Feel free to use these data in reports, presentations, proposals, and other research with the appropriate citation.
