Each fall the Statistical Research Center conducts its Survey of Enrollments and Degrees, which asks all degree-granting physics and astronomy departments in the US and Puerto Rico to provide information concerning the number of students they have enrolled and counts of recent degree recipients. In the academic year 2007-08 there were 252…

"Science and Engineering Indicators" (SEI) is first and foremost a volume of record comprising high-quality quantitative data on the U.S. and international science and engineering enterprise. SEI includes an overview and seven chapters that follow a generally consistent pattern. The chapter titles are as follows: (1) Elementary and…

This document reports on academic enrollments (including Fall 2006) and degrees conferred at the bachelor's, master's, and doctorate levels (including academic year 2005-2006) at colleges and universities with physics or astronomy degree-granting programs. The findings presented in this report are based on an annual survey of all the physics and…

Presented are employment projections in science and engineering. A shortfall is predicted unless more women and minorities can be attracted to science. Projections are based on a number of demographic and educational statistics. (CW)

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)…

Provides some of the results of the Engineering Manpower Commission's fall 1986 survey of enrollments in engineering education. Includes tabular data on those enrollments categorized by students in all institutions surveyed and for just those students in accredited programs, as well as by curriculum and by school and state.

Data presented in this report are derived from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) fall 1980 Survey of Graduate Science Students and Postdoctorates, covering 9,930 graduate science and engineering (S/E) departments in 633 doctorate- and master's-granting institutions. Highlights of the survey indicate that: (1) graduate enrollment in S/E…

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…

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)

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…
