Bayer Facts of Science Education Survey Says New U.S. President Must Fix Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematic (STEM) Education Gap

The U.S. Presidential candidates should be very concerned about the country's ability to attract and retain science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) workers in order to maintain its global leadership in science and technology, say CEOs and other C-suite executives at America's Fortune 1000 STEM companies.

One way to counter this talent crisis, they say, is to build a diverse STEM pipeline beginning at the earliest educational level. And while they believe they and other STEM companies have a responsibility to support such a diverse pipeline, they also say the current American pre-college education system is failing to engage girls and minorities to pursue STEM careers.
