Book Description
The Immigration & Naturalization Service (INS) supplies the National Science Foundation (NSF) with data on those immigrants who classified their occupation as scientists & engineers (S&Es), on the basis of their educational or employment background. The data used in this report come from the FY 1991 & FY 1992 Immigrant Public Tape prepared by the INS. S&Es constitute only a small proportion of all immigrants to the U.S., only 0.7% in 1991 & 2.3% in 1992. The bulk of immigrant S&Es are engineers. Immigrants form the Far East constitute a large & growing proportion of all S&E immigration. This report includes six charts.

Challenges to Research Universities
Author: Roger G. Noll
Publisher: Brookings Institution Press
ISBN: 9780815708087
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
The American research university enjoyed an unprecedented boom from the end of World War II until the 1990s. All sources of financial support for universities--federal grants, private gifts, state appropriations, student tuition, and revenues from university medical centers--grew substantially. As a result, traditionally prestigious universities expanded and numerous other universities were transformed from primarily teaching institutions to significant research centers. But in the 1990s, research universities have experienced the first protracted challenge to the boom of the preceeding four decades. This book examines the nature of the challenges to research universities, and their likely effects on the number, size, and operation of these universities. The authors assess the prospects for research support from government, industry, and profits from university medical centers, and conclude that the future does not appear bright in these cases. They also examine the methods used by the federal government to pay for university research, and propose changes that would make both universities and the federal government better off by reducing the administrative costs of federal grants. Their primary conclusion is that in the next decade American research universities will face increasingly stringent budgets, and will be forced to shrink and refocus their activities in order to survive as research institutions.
