Description
The Status of the Geoscience Workforce 2016 report is based on original data collected by AGI as well as from federal data sources, professional membership organizations, and industry. The report integrates all of these various data sources into a comprehensive view of the human and economic parameters of the geosciences, including supply and training of new students, workforce demographics and employment projections, to trends in geosciences research funding and economic indicators. This edition highlights the issues facing institutions of higher education as they prepare future geoscientists and the current economic and personnel issues facing the geoscience workforce.
