engineering bachelor’s degrees• 14.6% of science and engineering
master’s degrees• 5.4% of science and engineering
doctorates3
Very Slow Improvement
Little change between 1995 and 2007
• African American students earned 7% of S&E degrees in 1995; 8% in 2007.

Women are stronger in other fields (2007)• 77% of bachelor’s degrees in psychology• 60% of bachelor’s degrees in biological
sciences• 50% of bachelor’s degrees in agricultural
sciences• 50% of bachelor’s degrees in chemistry 5
K-12 Landscape
• World Economic Forum ranks the US 48th in quality of math and science education.
• 69% of US public school students in 5th-8th grade are taught math by a teacher without a degree or certificate in math.
• 93% of US public school students in 5th-8th grade are taught the physical sciences by a teacher without a degree or certificate in the physical sciences.

K-12 Landscape(continued)
• 68% of US state prison inmates are HS dropouts or did not qualify for a diploma.
• US has fallen from 1st to 11th in the fraction of 25-34 year olds that has graduated HS.
• Over ¾ of HS graduates did not meet ACT Readiness benchmarks for entry level courses in math, science, reading and English.

…Solving America’s Innovation Problem
• STEM disciplines hold the most promise for our economic recovery and our competitiveness
• Our CEOs have pledged to cultivate and invest in STEM literacy• A literate nation not only reads, it
calculates, analyzes and innovates
• Pursuit of public/private partnerships8
What’s different?
• Align corporate efforts in STEM education to help ensure that investments, public and private, add up to measurable growth in STEM education.
• Connect with like-minded leaders, identify opportunities to leverage STEM investments and create a significantly greater impact than would be possible for the individual corporations in isolation.
• Four unique characteristics: (1) independent non-partisan, non-profit voice; (2) lead by example; (3) network of CEOs; (4) scale up existing effective programs and help launch promising new programs.

Organizational Goals
Improving STEM teaching at all grade levels, with a larger and more diverse cadre of highly-capable and inspirational STEM teachers.
Inspiring student appreciation and excitement for STEM programs and careers to increase success and achievement in school and opportunities for a collegiate education, especially among females and students of color.
Achieving a sustained commitment to improving STEM education from business leaders, government officials, STEM educators and other stakeholders through innovation, communication, collaboration and data-based decision making.
10
New Urgency
Coordinate and Facilitate– Broker partnerships between effective STEM programs and
corporate contributors and connect companies to state and regional STEM networks.
Identify and Share Effective Approaches – Help companies develop a solid grounding in effective STEM
education so they can improve their individual STEM initiatives.
Advocate and Engage – Amplify the voice of the corporate sector to achieve results via
effective STEM education policies and strategies, additional corporate involvement, and new funding, as needed.
Ensure Accountability for Results – Develop metrics to measure progress toward STEM goals, at
national, state, and local levels.
