"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…

Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields are widely regarded as critical to the national economy. To provide a nationally representative portrait of undergraduate students' experiences in STEM education, these Web Tables summarize longitudinal data from a cohort of first-time, beginning students who started postsecondary…

The data presented in this report were collected in the 20th annual National Science Foundation/National Institutes of Health Survey of Graduate Students and Postdoctorates in Science and Engineering, covering 1991. The survey universe is composed of all U.S. institutions with departments or programs offering courses of study at the…

Provides statistical data of female representation in college, engineering majors, and engineering careers in Italy. Discusses the reasons for choosing engineering as a major field and the difficulties of the choice. (YP)

The number of B.S., M.S./P.E., and Ph.D. degrees in engineering and engineering technology awarded by U.S. colleges and universities is tabulated according to the following criteria: by state, by school, curriculum, type of recipient, and by school and degree level. (KR)

Presents in tabular form chemists' salaries. Reviews salaries of chemists with B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees, chemical engineers, college faculty, industrial chemists, women, and employment status of chemists surveyed. Indicates relatively low unemployment and that medial salary for chemists has increased 11% between March 1980 and March 1981. (JN)

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)

Reports on the number of chemists and chemical engineers that graduated from American Chemical Society approved college programs by degree, and institution in the 1986-87 school year. Summarizes data from approved schools from 1983-87. Lists the schools that had the most chemistry graduates by degree and institution. (CW)

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)

Reports on the flow of faculty members to and from academic institutions. Compares data between public and private institutions and between predominantly Ph.D. versus B.S. degree producing institutions. Discusses the problems of maintaining the quality of education offered by engineering and engineering technology administrators. (YP)

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)

Detailed statistical data on earned doctoral degrees for 1960-1981 are presented for science/engineering (S/E) fields, although non-S/E fields (such as the humanities) are represented. These data are reported in 10 charts and 15 tables. In addition to total S/E doctorates earned, data in charts address major field, sec, racial/ethnic identity for…
