That wasn’t the global academic structure at the time though. Kinsey was the foothold for American universities which then proliferated across the globe.
The academic structure of the American University is derived from German universities in the 1890's. This is when you started getting PhDs in scientific subjects like Engineering and Physics.

You’re off by a bit, the German phd was started in 1810 but the modern phd or doctorate for “social” sciences was a British educational innovation. None of this has anything to do with sex “education” being an academic standard, that was entirely Kinsey and the US.
You must've misread my last reply. Go back and read it again. I'm talking about the American University system and PhDs as we know it today. Not "social science" though I imagine a PhD there had to have come at the same time or after the hard science PhD because Doctorates in "social sciences" are still supposed to be backed up by math.

You mention the global academic structure, this is what I was replying to. I'm seeing the structure in terms of Bachelors, Masters, PhD, Associate Prof, Research Prof, etc.

Technologically pioneering corporations at the time like oil and railroad companies needed workers that were more skilled and educated.
