Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

Wide pay gaps exist between male and female physicians. Although the scope of gender equity among District physicians is unknown, a study in neighboring Maryland pointed to a significant pay gap with female physicians in Maryland earning 50% less on average than males. MSDC, which represents the 10,000+ licensed physicians in the District of Columbia, aims to survey the DC physician workforce in Fall 2023 to evaluate gender parity in the District of Columbia.

What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

1. Draft an email survey questionnaire intended to reveal information about the compensation levels of District physicians.

2. Prepare the survey using online survey tool.

3. Tabulate responses to the survey.

4. Prepare a summary report of survey results.

How will you support learners in completing the project?

Students will have access to survey tools, staff liaison, gender equity research and report from MSDC's task force on gender equity.
