摘要：

This study examines trends in the education-occupation match and earnings outcomes of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM)-educated immigrants and compares them with the outcomes of their Canadian-born counterparts. From 1985 to 2010, both education-occupation match and earnings outcomes deteriorated among immigrant STEM graduates while remaining more or less constant among Canadian born STEM graduates. The decline in education-occupation match was concentrated among recent immigrants entering during the 2000s. Both immigrant STEM graduates and immigrant non-STEM graduates experienced similar declines in relative earnings. Finally, the earnings gap between immigrant and Canadian-born STEM graduates did not close quickly with years in Canada.
