In response to the challenge of the shortage of STEM graduates , the industrialist David Landsman of Tata Ltd, is a man on a mission. He is described as a leading voice in a campaign to get tens of thousands students to study STEM subjects at University level. The forum discussing the new University is available on line : http://www.hayfestival.com/p-7969-karen-usher-eric-thomas-david-landsman-and-david-willetts.aspx , and includes contributors such as Eric Thomas, VC of University of Bristol, David Willetts, Science Minister, and Karen Usher campaigner for the new University. Maybe invitations to Skirting Science should be extended to this group!
