Presents statistical data on chemistry and chemical engineering departments for the 1988-89 academic year. Provides tables for departments offering approved programs, degrees awarded by schools, and trends during the last five years. (YP)

Presented results from the annual survey of physiology department chairpersons on: faculty characteristics (degrees held, tenured/not tenured, unfilled positions); graduate students and postdoctoral fellows; training support; trainee characteristics (race, research area); faculty salaries (various levels, medical/nonmedical); and budgets. (DH)

Presents and analyzes statistical data to assist in evaluating general trends in engineering research and graduate study, and for comparisons among universities. Data are presented for 1978 and 1979 annual averages and annual average ratios relative to 17 criteria, including among others, full-time faculty and professional faculty researchers.…

Because undergraduate education is the foundation for graduate studies, it is important to know where our Nation's science and engineering (S&E) doctorate recipients are receiving their undergraduate training. Specifically, this report addresses the following broad questions: (1) What are the undergraduate origins of S&E doctorate holders? (2)…

Examines the supply and national origin of the holders and near-holders of engineering doctorates who applied to one university engineering department in which extramural research has been emphasized. Compares them with national data on doctoral recipients. (TW)

Discusses the trends in baccalaureate and doctoral degrees in engineering in the 1986-87 academic year. Lists states and schools awarding the largest number of engineering degrees; degrees by curriculum and type of recipient; engineering degrees by school and degree level; and engineering technology degrees by school and degree level. (CW)

Stressing the importance of engineers to the growth of the economy, the building of national defense, and the preparation of future generations for a technological age, this report examines the changes in engineering degree awards from 1972-1984. The document describes these changes from four perspectives. The role of graduates from United States…

Provides a yearly summary of research and graduate study activities at most United States and several Canadian engineering colleges. Provides officers of the institution; number of faculty, graduate students, and undergraduate students; extension centers; doctoral research areas; budgeted research; and degree requirements. (MVL)

During the 1976-86 decade, the annual employment growth rate of chemists in the United States was 4%, well below average as compared with the growth rate for all science fields (8%). This document provides current and historical information on various trends in the field of chemistry. The book is divided into three major sections, dealing…

Reports data, with a few exceptions, from all colleges awarding bachelor's or higher degrees in engineering and engineering technology in the United States in 1985. Data are broken down by degree, school, curriculum, women, minorities, and foreign nationals. Eight tables summarize the data. (JM)

The growth trends in foreign involvement in United States science and engineering show no signs of changing. This situation has raised a number of questions among public and private sector science and technology policy officials regarding the possible impacts on U.S. higher education and industry. This report identifies and assembles available…

This document contains a set of tabulations that are related to the science and engineering resources of universities and colleges. The tabulations were derived from three National Science Foundation (NSF) surveys that are conducted annually by NSF's Division of Science Resources Studies. Data presented in these tables are assembled from the most…

This report provides tabular data derived from three surveys conducted in the National Science Foundation's Division of Science Resources Studies regarding science and engineering education in traditionally black colleges. Tables 1 through 4 are derived from the Survey of Scientific and Engineering Expenditures at Universities and Colleges. This…

The Division of Science Resources Studies (SRS) of the National Science Foundation (NSF) designs and conducts surveys and supports other data collection activities. This document is a guide to the recurring portions of the SRS data bases, including information on survey design, sample size, and data content. The abstracts found in this guide…

The 11th Annual Survey of Graduate Science and Engineering Students and Postdoctorates requested data from all institutions of higher education in the United States in which there was at least one science or engineering program leading to a master's or doctoral degree, including medical schools and other components granting first-professional…
