(BLS) indicates that demand for engineers will continue to show asteady growth during the 2014-2024 period and expects greater-than-average growth fromseveral individual engineering fields with rates ranging from 23.1% for biomedical engineers to5.3 % for mechanical engineers [1]. The increasing employment of engineers in serviceindustries, research and development, and consulting is expected to generate most of theemployment growth.The National Science Foundation in a 2015 Survey of Graduate Students and Post-doctorates inscience and engineering [2] found that from 2008 to 2013 STEM graduate students in the U.S.who were U.S. citizens or permanent residents rose 3.1%.
