I can’t get behind that without checking, but we – the USA – are behind the curve versus many other developed countries when it comes to pumping out home-grown students in math, the sciences, and engineering. Foreign-born students coming here to our excellent universities are intensely motivated, usually the brightest, and are actively recruited by related industries and institutions; I don’t think they work cheaper than native counterparts.

I think if they come over post-degree (meaning they didn’t move here for an education and then stay for work), they are probably cheaper than people from American universities. There are also cases of outsourcing work overseas (in programming fields, especially).

I hear you. Part of my post comes from own personal experience; many coming to NYU from So. Korea, India, and Pakistan for both undergraduate and graduate degrees, schoolmates and acquaintances who, by a sizeable number, have stayed because what they’ve learned indexes nicely with what the US industries are preeminent at and which may not be pursuable in their own countries…

Given how technologically dependent the world is, these two groups really need to work together on an equal basis.
YES, THIS!
