Status of the Geoscience Workforce 2011

The Status of the Geoscience Workforce 2011 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. New for this edition is greatly expanded coverage of Community Colleges and of economic metrics that reflect various aspects of the geosciences.
