Scholars and policy analysts point out the alarming dearth of science, math, and engineering students, and ponder how to educate and train Americans to take over when the current generation of scientists retires. The topics include the demographic underpinnings, barriers to women, black colleges and universities, bachelor and doctorate degrees, future supply and demand, and human resource management policies.
