Section Five: Index of Company Supported Program Descriptions 31 Member Companies' Web Based Resources 59 Educating Tomorrow’s Workforce: An Update on the Semiconductor Industry’s Commitment to K-12 Education Preface Semiconductor technology advances create a constant demand for skilled engineering and technical talent, talent that begins with cultivating K-12 science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education. Traditional industry business cycles and the current economic climate have combined to create one of the most challenging periods in semiconductor industry history. In spite of the challenges, there is -- and will continue to be for many years -- a significant need for well-trained technology workers. To substantially increase the numbers of math- and science-focused students (our next generation of technology workers), there must be strong support from teachers, parents, mentors and corporate, government and association partners. This effort needs to take place long before students reach high school, and continue throughout their studies. SIA member companies are working intensely to improve student achievement in grades K-12. The overall contribution levels of our member companies are outstanding. In the past 3 years:
The publication is divided into five sections. The charts in the first two sections reflect the variety of programs supported by member companies in Engineering and Technology, Science, Math/Science and Education Infrastructure. The first section highlights programs that benefit students, while the second concentrates on programs aimed at supporting teachers and schools. Subsequent sections include brief overviews of individual company strategies and foundation goals, detailed descriptions of the various programs in alphabetical order, as well as web resources and a geographic listing of the cited member companies. The catalog is designed to show the focus being placed on STEM areas of education by our member companies. We hope to see, over the next several years, an increase in the number of programs that address the need for additional math and science teachers at the middle and high school level. Our other focus is programs that focus on motivating and retaining University students in Electrical Engineering. The catalog is also intended for others who share a vision of providing superior math and science education for America's students, and continued U.S. technological leadership. Since this catalog seeks to share best practices, it does not attempt to list every K-12 program supported by semiconductor companies. It does, however, demonstrate the industry's wide-reaching impact on math and science education, and its deep commitment to developing future generations of technology talent.
