Foreign Students and Immigrant Physicists
DOI: 10.1063/1.3050605
Foreign students are coming to the United States in rapidly increasing numbers to study physics. While the total number of visiting foreign students has doubled since 1955, the number of those studying physics has more than tripled. (During this same period, total US physics enrollments have roughly doubled; in 1961–62 there were about 22 700 upper classmen and graduate students studying physics.)
