On the basis of an analysis of employment data on 22 ,405 recipients of doctoral degrees in science and engineering from a research institute in China from 2008 to 2012 and qualitative interviews of doctoral degree recipients (DDRs) ,a study was made on the state of these DDRs'employment and the influence of gender differences on their employment .Our main findings indicate the following .(1) There was no obvious gender difference in DDRs'rate of finding employment at the end of the year ,and female DDRs did not have special difficulty in finding jobs .(2) Most DDRs found work at research institutes or institutions of higher education ,and gender differences were reflected in their chosen employment .(3) More than 15 .1% of DDRs continued to do postdoctoral work ,and the gender factor was evident in their decisions as to whether to stay in China or to go abroad .(4) Where DDRs originally studied had a direct influence on the geographical location of their employment and there were significant differences among DDRs when they chose where to live and work .%通过对我国某科研机构2008～2012年毕业的22405名理工科博士生就业数据进行梳理与分析，结合对博士毕业生的质性访谈结果，重点研究了科研院所理工科博士的就业状况以及性别差异对博士生就业的影响。主要研究发现为：（1）性别差异对年终工作落实率的影响在博士层次上体现得不明显，女博士不存在就业难的问题。（2）科研机构和高等教育单位是博士生主要的就业单位，但是性别差异会导致博士生的就业单位性质呈现出差异。（3）在毕业去向的类型上，超过15．1％的科研院所博士毕业生会继续选择做博士后，性别因素会导致在选择留在国内还是出国做博士后方面存在差异。（4）博士生的求学地域将直接影响就业单位地域的选择，东、中、西部不同地区培养单位的博士在就业地区选择上存在显著差异。
