[EX Q]: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ''Innovation Inspiration School Grant
Program Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

Congress makes the following findings:
(1) According to the National Science Board's 2010 Science
and Engineering Indicators, only 5 percent of American college
graduates major in engineering. In Asia, about 20 percent of
all baccalaureate degrees are in engineering and in China about
33 percent of baccalaureate degrees are in engineering.
(2) Although 4th graders in the United States score well
against international competition, students in the United
States fall near the bottom or dead last by 12th grade in
mathematics and science, respectively.
(3) Admissions requirements for undergraduate engineering
schools include a solid background in mathematics (algebra,
geometry, trigonometry, and calculus) and science (biology,
chemistry, and physics), in addition to courses in English,
social studies, and humanities.
(4) According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, overall
engineering employment is expected to grow by 11 percent from
2008 through 2018, and, as a group, engineers earn some of the
highest average starting salaries among individuals holding
baccalaureate degrees.
(5) According to the Department of Labor, engineers should
be creative, inquisitive, analytical, and detail-oriented.
Engineers should be able to work as part of a team and to
communicate well, both orally and in writing. Communication
abilities are becoming increasingly important as engineers
interact more frequently with specialists in a wide range of
fields outside engineering.
(6) Exposure to project- and problem-based learning, in a
competitive team environment, gives 9th through 12th graders
the skills that they need to be successful in engineering
programs of study and engineering careers.
(7) According to Brandeis University's Center for Youth and
Communities, participants in FIRST Robotics (a nonprofit
organization that inspires young people to be science and
technology leaders by engaging the young people in mentor-based
programs)--
(A) are more likely than nonparticipants to attend
an institution of higher education on a full-time basis
(88 percent versus 53 percent);
(B) are nearly 2 times as likely to major in a
science or engineering field; and
(C) are more than 3 times as likely to have majored
specifically in engineering.
