Does the U.S. Have Enough Engineers To Reach its Renewable Energy Goals?

clipped from www.renewableenergyworld.com Q: I've heard some people say that there aren't enough engineers graduating from accredited programs in the United States these days and I'm wondering if that will impact this country's renewable energy goals. First, can you tell me if that is true and if it is, what should we do about it? -- Marvin E., Washington, DC. Marvin, that's a good question. In fact, I have been getting a lot of calls from recruiters in the marine field looking for people recently (which is surprising, given the economy), and I have heard about of a bunch more engineering openings in a lot of other industries.
