This study examines the availability of career and technical education program areas in Tennessee high schools, concentrations (a three-or-more credit sequence in a program area) completed by 2007/08 high school graduates, and how these concentrations align with jobs in the labor market. It looks at how these outcomes differ, statewide and by…

The Career Technical Education (CTE) mission of California's community colleges is not well understood by policymakers in comparison to the transfer mission of the colleges. This exploratory study, to be followed by a more comprehensive research agenda, is motivated by the belief that CTE is a vital piece of the college completion agenda but is…

Institutions of higher education, the major source of the nation's scientists and engineers, perform about one-half of the nation's basic research. Therefore, the level, distribution, and characteristics of federal academic support are of much interest to officials at federal, state, and local levels and in nongovernmental sectors. The National…

Presents and discusses data on engineering technology enrollments for all students (by curriculum and level), for women and minority groups, and for all programs (broken down by state and type of degree). Data comparing 1982 to previous years are also included. (BC)

Presents data from the Engineering Manpower Commission's 1983 survey of engineering technology degrees. Results indicate a 12 percent increase in associate degrees and a 9.9 percent increase in bachelor's degrees. Summaries of engineering technology degrees awarded by curriculum and degrees by school and degree level are included. (BC)

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 data on engineering degrees granted by institutions during 1984. Statistical categories include: highest number of degrees by state and university; disciplines; women, minorities and foreign nationals; degrees by school; and degree level for each state. Information on engineering technology degrees is also given. (DH)

This report gives the number of engineering and technology degrees for the school year ending in June 1974. Tables appear in the following order: engineering degrees (bachelor's, master's, engineer's, doctor's) and technology degrees (associate, bachelor's, certificate, master's). The engineering tables include all 284 schools known to offer…

Presents statistical data for engineering technology degrees, engineering undergraduates, and graduate degrees in 1989. Discusses trends for women, minorities, and foreign students. Includes data for many individual schools. (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)

Survey results are presented from a study of the steps being taken by the 52 Illinois public community colleges to develop and provide programs in high technology fields. First, high technology programs are defined as those occupational programs that educate and train individuals to operate, maintain, and/or repair micro-electronic or computerized…

Data from the annual Higher Education General Information Survey (HEGIS) on associate degrees and other formal awards below the baccalaureate level in institutions of higher education in the United States are presented. Completions of organized occupational curriculums in a variety of technologies normally offered in two-year collegiate programs…

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)

Doctorate-granting institutions and independent medical colleges were surveyed to gather systematic, comparative information on international scientific activities supported by the federal government, private foundations, and other sources. Data were gathered on these activities' nature and scope, the academic disciplines involved, and the world…

The demand and supply of baccalaureate degree engineers from 1975 to 1983 are assessed, with some analysis of the implications the declining birth rate will have beyond 1983. The study reveals a current (1975) shortage for all types of engineers as well as a considerable long-term shortage to 1983 because of the probable response to the energy…
