Researchers from Duke University studied the impact of globalization on the engineering profession. This included comparing engineering education in the United States with its major new competitors, India and China; identifying the sources of U.S. global advantages; exploring the factors driving the U.S. trend toward outsourcing; and learning what the US can do to keep its economic edge. The data obtained and analysis provided can help U.S. policymakers, business leaders, and educators chart future actions.
