Science and Engineering Careers in the United States is the first major academic study to probe the issues that underlie these concerns. This volume provides new information on the economics of the postgraduate science and engineering job market, addressing su 410 0$aNational Bureau of Economic Research conference report. 606 $aScientists$zUnited States 606 $aEngineers$zUnited States 606 $aScience$xStudy and teaching (Higher)$zUnited States 606 $aEngineering$xStudy and teaching (Higher)$zUnited States 615 0$aScientists 615 0$aEngineers 615 0$aScience$xStudy and teaching (Higher) 615 0$aEngineering$xStudy and teaching (Higher) 676 $a331.119150973 701 $aFreeman$b Richard B$g(Richard Barry),$f1943-$0118990 701 $aGoroff$b Daniel L$01804278 712 02$aNational Bureau of Economic Research. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910963651503321 996 $aScience and engineering careers in the United States$94352208 997 $aUNINA
