Reports findings on engineering faculty demographics derived from a survey conducted by the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE). Presents data by geographical regions and discusses the reported variations. Notes perceived crises factors in engineering education. (ML)

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)

Addresses the status of engineering education for women. Discusses the changes related to both the image of women and the engineering profession over the past 15 years. Assesses how computer-aided engineering has made engineering attractive to women today. (TW)

Expresses concern over the strain on higher engineering education to keep up with the demand for new engineers.
