education and occupational codes.2. BackgroundIn this paper, definitions for STEM fall into one of two domains: education or occupation. Thespecific discipline categories used in the education domain are derived from the National Centerfor Education Statistics Classification of Instructional Programs 20008 and the Classification ofInstructional Programs 19909. The standard Occupational Classification (SOC) system is used inthe occupational domain.CIP and CIP CodesThe National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), of the U. S. Department of Education,developed the Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP). CIP includes all the disciplinesoffered in academic institutions and universities in the United States. For each discipline, there isa

, the issue of distributing electricityaccess to rural communities. The boundaries on this issue can range from access to academicopportunities, improvements and/or creations of newer innovations, to access to economicopportunities and/or improved medical care, where these arguments are made either in thecontext of present day inequalities or put in the context of historical and ongoing inequalitiesfaced by citizens in rural communities. Another challenge stems from the relative value of theitem to individuals. The policy debate that arises is grounded in how much relative value will bederived from the individual(s) receiving the item(s).

The Diffusion of Innovation Theory, tosome extent, can be introduced.2.2 Analysis model of the diffusion of “Double First-rate” InitiativeFrances S. Berry and William D. Berry (1990) integrated the internal decision-making model andexternal diffusion model, and proposed an integrated diffusion of innovation model. The modelhas become a mainstream model of diffusion of innovation in the West for a long time. This re-search revises the Berry’s diffusion of innovation model, expands the connotation of influencingfactors and mechanism factors, and tries

The follow policy maker quotes illustrate this point: "If we want good public policy, it has to be made by those who understand the issues ... sadly, few elected officials have

U.S. corporations, like those of other countries, have also been quick tosee value in investing in China’s manufacturing base and pursuing opportunities in its domesticmarket.9A further corrective to the alarmist view was recently published in a well researched report byGereffi and Wadha at Duke University, “Typical articles have stated that in 2004 the United States graduated roughly 70,000 undergraduate engineers, while China graduated 600,000 and India 350,000.

engineering education research is provided by the EngineeringEducation Program. However, that source is limited to approximately $9 million which is alsoshared with the CAREER awards funded by NSF ‘s engineering directorate. A search of theNSF awards database (searching on program element 1340) shows fewer than 50 awards housedin the engineering directorate and devoted to engineering education research (80 other awardsare housed in other divisions and were co-funded). As the number of engineering educationresearchers grows, the strain on this limited supply of funds will become increasingly significant.The other major concern is how well the engineering education research community is able tonegotiate both establishing itself as a free-standing
