Video: Fortune 1000 Executives: New President Must Fix Education Gap
Date:9/17/2008

The Bayer Facts of Science Education XIII, conducted by ICR (International Communications Research), are based on a telephone poll of 100 C-level executives at Fortune 1000 STEM companies. While Fortune defines its companies in terms of industry (pharmaceutical, telecommunications, etc.), it does not characterize them necessarily as STEM companies. In order to create such a list, Fortune 1000 companies with high R&D employment and expenditure were identified by matching companies on the 2007 Fortune list with a list of the 1,000 top non-European Union R&D intensive companies prepared by the European Commission. Survey respondents were drawn from this list. The statistical reliability achieved conducting the 100 interviews is a maximum +/- 9.8 percent margin of error at a 95 percent confidence level.
