The "Science and Engineering Indicators" series was designed to provide a broad base of quantitative information about U.S. science, engineering, and technology for use by policymakers, researchers, and the general public. "Science and Engineering Indicators 2014" contains analyses of key aspects of the scope, quality, and…

The Education Scotland publication, "External Quality Arrangements for Scotland's Colleges, Updated August 2013," specifies that Education Scotland will produce a number of subject-based aspect reports each year. These reports complement, in a subject-specific context, the generic evaluations of learning and teaching in Education…

Science and Engineering Indicators (SEI) is first and foremost a volume of record comprising the major high-quality quantitative data on the U.S. and international science and engineering enterprise. SEI is factual and policy neutral. It does not offer policy options, and it does not make policy recommendations. SEI employs a variety of…

This document contains a list of appendix tables for the "Science and Engineering Indicators 2012" report. The tables are presented according to these chapters: (1) Elementary and Secondary Mathematics and Science Education; (2) Higher Education in Science and Engineering; (3) Science and Engineering Labor Force; (4) Research and Development:…

The United States holds a preeminent position in science and engineering (S&E) in the world, derived in large part from its long history of public and private investment in S&E research and development (R&D) and education. Investment in R&D, science, technology, and education correlate strongly with economic growth, as well the development of a…

Engineering has played an important role in Scotland's industrial history. Over the years, the skills requirements of industry have changed as the technology has progressed and the industrial base of the country has developed. Over the past decade, there have been substantial changes in the employment opportunities for people with engineering…

This collection and analysis of data on minorities in engineering emphasizes: minority engineering students by field, men; minority engineering students by field, women; minority engineering students by degree level; class standing of women and minority engineering students; high school background and standing of women and minority engineering…

This document presents statistical data of direct federal science and engineering support to higher education institutions in the United States. Data presented in the report are collected annually and exclude financial support of an indirect nature. There are six categories of support presented: (1) "Research and Development"; (2) "Research and…

This is the sixth year that an attempt has been made to bring together information of interest to deans of engineering for use in planning. Special attention has been focused on direct instructional costs, nonacademic personnel costs, regular nonsalaried operational costs, space rations, and student-faculty ratios. Only general comparisons for the…

Provides statistics on the 1975 enrollments for various engineering branches and for women and minorities in engineering. (MLH)

Two tables provide corrected data on the top schools in the number, percent, and group membership of minority baccalaureate degrees awarded (1998) in engineering; and the top schools in the total number, percent, and gender of minority master's degrees awarded for all disciplines combined (1996-97). (DB)

This digest of key science and engineering indicators draws primarily from the National Science Board's two-volume "Science and Engineering Indicators, 2008" report. The digest serves two purposes: (1) to draw attention to important trends and data points from across the chapters and volumes of "Science and Engineering Indicators, 2008," and (2)…

This 1974 annual report of Southern Methodist University (SMU) deals with intentions for 1975-1980 and presents a statistical report and evaluation of trends. Section I, intentions for 1975-80, covers achieving excellence, superior programs, physical plant expansion, minority student program, increasing baccalaureate degrees, an educational…

Discusses two National Science Foundation reports that provide statistics supporting a number of trends evident in the 1970's in science and engineering education. (MLH)
