Liang Chen Publishes an Article in 近代史研究 on Career Trajectories of Tsinghua Students Studying in the U.S. between 1909 and 1944
Chen Liang (梁晨) published a new article 《1909—1944年清华留美学生职业状况量化研究》 in 《近代史研究》(Modern Chinese History Studies) on the career trajectories of Tsinghua students studying in the U.S. between 1909 and 1944. Here is the Chinese abstract: 借助数字技术并经人工比对，可从大量数字文献和数据库中收集到晚清民国清华选派的绝大多数留美学生的工作信息。该工作不仅为系统研究清华留美学生职业获得与发展建立数据基础，也为突破量化史学主要依靠结构性史料的局限提供了示例。分析清华留美学生多个时间节点的职业信息可知，他们回国初期主要在学校和实业部门工作，在实现“学以致用”的同时，初期职业较一般留学生更具专业性，后期职业则多有变动。其职业变动与国家局势颇为相关，“学以报国”的倾向更为明显。与此同时，留美学生群体的聚集性也逐步显现，同学关系在个人发展中的推动作用不断增强。清华留美学生职业发展的基础是重视客观选拔和系统培养，强调理论学习与实践运用相结合，可为后世提供借鉴。 关键词 清华 留美学生 职业生涯 量化历史 数字技术 Full reference: 梁晨. 1909—1944年清华留美学生职业状况量化研究. 《近代史研究》2024年第4期.

Liang Chen and James Lee Publish an Article in 中国社会科学 on Female University Students in Republican-era China
Chen Liang (梁晨) and James Z. Lee (李中清) published an article 《社会转型与中国近代女大学生的教育样态》 in 《中国社会科学》(Social Sciences in China) on the female university students in Republican-era China using the CUSD-ROC databases. Here is the abstract in Chinese and English: 在近代社会转型背景之下，中国女大学生的教育环境和教育选择既与传统中国女性迥异，也与欧美不尽相同。一方面，随着女禁解除,男女同校的教育形式被中国高校普遍采纳，高校女大学生的制度环境较为宽松；另一方面，女大学生的社会来源和地理分布较男生更为集中，女子进入高等教育的门槛明显高于男生，在看似相对宽松的教育环境背后隐藏着更难逾越的阶层限制。大学之门平等向女性开放，是新中国成立后才逐渐发展形成的。这不仅有助于推进近代中国女性教育研究，也为理解全球近代女性平等的发展历程提供了中国经验。 One of the most radical and important social changes in the twentieth century is the opening of tertiary education to women.…
