...familiar to the deans of U.S. engineering schools, who find themselves hopelessly outmatched in the intense competition for top talent in a soaring job market for engineers. Massachusetts Institute of Technology has been trying for four years to fill three vacant assistant professorships in the growing field of electrical engineering. The University of Illinois is desperately trying to recruit 30 more professors for an engineering staff that normally numbers 400. Nationally, the American Association of Engineering Societies reports that 2,000 college teaching jobs are going begging. Obsolete equipment is one reason. Some measuring instruments at Texas...
