Abstract
This talk will present current statistics on acoustics degrees and employment in acoustics. The data come from the National Science Foundation’s studies of degrees awarded and from the American Institute of Physics’ surveys of members of our ten Member Societies (including ASA). Because acoustics encompasses many different disciplines, these statistics will be compared to data from larger fields such as engineering, physics, and life and earth sciences. Although the numbers are very small in acoustics, data will be shown on the participation of under‐represented minorities and women where possible. Finally, implications for increasing diversity in acoustics will be discussed.
