Much has been written and discussed about globalization, outsourcing, and off-shoring in recent months. Clearly, domestic job losses in many sectors, paradoxically in a time of economic recovery, are getting intense scrutiny and political traction in an election year. However, there is a quieter and perhaps more ominous trend in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines that has important ramifications for the future.
