IMMIGRANTS IN THE S&E WORKFORCE
The flow of S& E immigrants to the United States reached an all-time high of nearly 23,000 in 1992.
Most of these immigrants were born in the Far East, primarily in India, China, and Taiwan. In addition, unprecedented numbers of
scientists and engineers
from the former Soviet Union entered the United States in 1991 and 1992, accounting for almost 2,400 visas in those 2 years. (For more information see:
