This study shows that the demographic and institutional origins of new US trained science and engineering PhDs changed … markedly between the late 1960s-1970s to the 1990s-early 2000s. In 1966, 71% of science and engineering PhD graduates were US … programs. The undergraduate origins of bachelor's obtaining science and engineering PhDs changed only modestly among US …

This article reviews and evaluates the nascent literature on the economics of climate engineering. The literature … distinguishes between two broad types of climate engineering: solar radiation management and carbon dioxide removal. We review the … science and engineering characteristics of these technologies and analyze the implications of those characteristics on …

In the past two decades China leaped from bit player in global science and engineering (S&E) to become the world … latecomer to modern science and engineering, China trailed the US and other advanced countries in the quality of its …

from science and engineering relative to other fields. I find that the higher relative exit rate is driven by engineering … rather than science, and show that 60% of the gap can be explained by the relatively greater exit rate from engineering of …-science and engineering fields as a comparison group. The relative exit rate by gender from engineering does not differ from that …

In a field experiment, 1,787 Engineering majors were … systematic differences in inclination to take Engineering elective courses, choice of major, and the probability of persisting in … Engineering years later--consistent with engagement, retention, and sorting effects.
