Reports on four broad categories of employment: engineering; sciences, math and other technical; business; and other nontechnical. Only increases over 1974 by type of employer were in state and local governments and in non-profit and educational institutions (excluding teaching). (GS)

Analyzes job situations for chemical professionals on the basis of the survey findings obtained by the Chemical and Engineering News and the College Placement Council. Indicates a slight recovery in employment in 1973. (CC)

The numbers of scientists/engineers employed at colleges and universities continue to grow, although not so rapidly as their numbers grow in the federal and industrial sectors. This is the conclusion of a survey from the National Science Foundation covering data collected in January 1982. Other survey highlights are reported. (JN)

Describes a publication designed to serve as a statistical base from which various groups can develop policy recommendations on chemical manpower. This new series will be the first official effort by the society to compile, correlate, and present all data relevant to the economic status of chemists. (Author/GS)

The annual census of industrial employment, production workers, women, the workweek, scientists and engineers, chemical employment, wages, and productivity in the chemical industry is presented. Trends in the numbers of workers, productivity, and unit labor costs are illustrated in graphs. (CW)

Highlights data on salaries and employment status of chemists based on results of a 1982 survey of American Chemical Society (ACS) members. Indicates that unemployment has risen slightly and, although salaries are up moderately, inflation tends to wipe out any financial gain. (JN)

Summarizes the findings of a National Science Foundation study of academic science from 1972-1981 which surveyed universities and colleges for information on research and development spending, employment of scientists and engineers, and science and engineering graduate enrollment and postdoctorates. (DC)

Salaries and demand for scientists and engineers are described. Comparisons of chemists and other scientists are provided. Resources for career planning in science and engineering are listed. (CW)

Discusses demand for chemists and chemical engineers in 1986 and the first half of 1987. Examines the employment outlook by degree, time of year, industry, and institution. Makes predictions for the next year. Examines the starting salaries for B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. chemists. Discusses inequities by degree, experience, and gender. (CW)

Results of a National Science Foundation survey indicate that developing shortages of science and engineering graduates in the current labor force for the most part do not apply to chemists and chemical engineers. (Author/JN)
