THIS REPORT ON FACTORS AFFECTING ATTRACTION AND RETENTION OF ENGINEERING TALENT IN OHIO AND THROUGHOUT THE NATION CONCLUDES THAT LOSS OF ENGINEERING TALENT IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT WILL PROBABLY BECOME MORE SEVERE. MORE THAN 55 PERCENT OF THE ENGINEERS LEFT THE OHIO DEPARTMENT OF HIGHWAYS WITHIN 3 YEARS, AND IT IS WORTH NOTING THAT LOW SALARIES RANKED ONLY THIRD AMONG THE 5 MAJOR CAUSES. SPECIFIC SUGGESTIONS ARE OFFERED ON RECRUITING, TRAINING, AND ENSURING RETENTION OF ENGINEERS. /AUTHOR/
