Brazil exporting engineers to the USA

Brazil exporting engineers to the USA

Anyone who is not from the engineering field or is not part of the socio-economic research group of IPEA or IBGE, and of research institutes on education in universities would be surprised by indicators on the education system in the USA, to illustrate just two facts that show us how fragile the US training system is: during the second world war only one of the physicists in charge of developing the first atomic bomb in the history of humanity was American, all the other nearly 100 physicists and chemists, mathematicians and statisticians of the Manhattan project erm foreigners; currently 100% of PHDs in the areas of physics are migrants, according to Michio Kaku, also a migrant.

The bubble in the formation of engineers in the USA had already burst since the cold war, and it just went crazy, today the USA has an unmet demand for the formation of mathematicians, mathematicians understood as the group of mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, naval engineers, civil engineers , aeronautical engineers, mathematicians, physicists, statisticians, whose annual training is 210 thousand incomplete graduates, as the college lasts 3 years and needs to complement the training with a professional master's degree for another 2 years; while France trains 340,000 mathematicians per year with the highest rate per inhabitant on the planet; India trains 640,000 mathematicians a year; China trains 1,600,000 mathematicians a year, Russia trains 510,000 mathematicians a year, so the gap in the USA is huge, Brazil trains 40,000 mathematicians a year, but the quality of graduates from ITA, USP, IME, Unicamp, UFMG, Pouso Alegre, UnB, UFSC, UnB, UFRGS, UFPR cover this hole with great quality of the trainees that begins in the selection, with the exception of quota holders and other less academic ways of selecting students.

Brazil can export engineers and charge for it, it cannot spend money from public schools and universities and donate brains to the USA, to Canada.
