Discusses salaries of chemical professionals, resulting from two annual salary surveys conducted by the American Chemical Society Office of Manpower Studies. Factors affecting salaries are also discussed. (CS)

Reports survey results from the American Chemical Society (ACS) that indicate an erosion of chemists' salaries by soaring living costs. Numerous tables provide information regarding the employment status of industrial and academic ACS members and their salaries. (CS)

Cites salary statistics for chemists between 1975 and 1976 according to employer-type, degree level, geographical location, sex, and other factors. (MLH)

According to the 1978 survey of American Chemical Society members, chemists salaries have risen almost in step with inflation and unemployment has remained low. (BB)

Presents in tabular form chemists' salaries. Reviews salaries of chemists with B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees, chemical engineers, college faculty, industrial chemists, women, and employment status of chemists surveyed. Indicates relatively low unemployment and that medial salary for chemists has increased 11% between March 1980 and March 1981. (JN)

Offers ideas to encourage working engineers to pursue their education and to support engineers who teach. A market-sensitive plan is advocated whereby stipend and salary supplements from industry are collected and allocated by engineering societies, adding little to industrial salary costs while adding greatly to resources of beleaguered schools.…

A 1981 survey of United States and Canadian American Institute of Physics members shows salaries keeping up with inflation, shifts toward interdisciplinary work, but underrepresentation of women in higher paying positions. Although focusing on the 1981 employment situation, some speculation as to future changes are included. (Author/JN)

Highlights National Research Council report ("Climbing the Ladder II: An Update on the Status of Doctoral Women Scientists and Engineers"). Indicates that, although supply of women with doctorates in science is up 50 percent in the past four years, salary and tenure problems are continuing. (JN)

Highlights data on salaries and employment status of chemists based on results of a 1982 survey of American Chemical Society (ACS) members. Indicates that unemployment has risen slightly and, although salaries are up moderately, inflation tends to wipe out any financial gain. (JN)

Indicates a current shortage of analytical chemists with Ph.D.'s in academia and industry which will continue during the 1980s. Discusses several factors responsible for the shortage. (SK)

"Women, Minorities, and Persons with Disabilities in Science and Engineering" provides statistical information about the participation of women, minorities, and persons with disabilities in science and engineering education and employment. Its primary purpose is to serve as an information source; it offers no endorsement of or recommendations…

Salaries and demand for scientists and engineers are described. Comparisons of chemists and other scientists are provided. Resources for career planning in science and engineering are listed. (CW)

During the 1976-86 decade, the annual employment growth rate of chemists in the United States was 4%, well below average as compared with the growth rate for all science fields (8%). This document provides current and historical information on various trends in the field of chemistry. The book is divided into three major sections, dealing…

It is pointed out that there is a desperate need for engineering and computer science doctoral faculty, a need recognized by various schools of science and engineering and by the Federal government. Although the National Science Foundation and other agencies do not see a shortage of college faculty in the other sciences, faculty in some of these…

Traces the decline in employment opportunities for chemists and chemical engineers. Discusses the employment outlook for 1987. Includes information on continuing education opportunities for chemical professionals already employed, the drop in demand for chemistry professionals, the decline in salaries of bachelor's degree chemists, and several…
