HIGH-TECH WORKFORCE PRODUCTION PROCESS FLOW DIAGRAM

THE K-12 SYSTEM 6 million students Latinos are largest and fastest growing ethnic group HOW DO WE RANK? Per-pupil spending now at national average, but lagged by 15-20% for a decade. 4th and 8th grade math and science scores among worst in country. Teachers less well educated than other states. 40,000 teachers under-qualified, with emergency permits or waivers.

COMMUNITY COLLEGES 1.6 million students 91,000 degrees/year, 6,000 in S&E Most students part time IMPORTANT STEPPING STONE More than 55,000 transfer to 4-year institutions each year - only 10,000 in S&E. Transfer students do well. Most students are first-generation college goers. Faculty quality high, but overall resources limited. Important role in remediation and for increasing diversity.

BACCALAUREATE SCHOOLS Over 590,000 students 19,000 S&E degrees/year Public institutions grant 82% of S&E degrees HOW DO WE RANK? California, nation s technology leader, ranks 9th in S&E baccalaureates per capita. Rise in S&E baccalaureates not keeping pace with overall growth of baccalaureates. Engineering degrees dropped 13% in the past 10 years.
