Evaluation of the Business of Science initiative: Final research report

This research report evaluates an initiative called The Business of Science, a Ministry of Research, Science and Technology (MoRST) initiative that ran in the Waikato region in 2003. The initiative was targeted at Year 13 students who have studied science subjects at school, but intend to enter courses such as business, law, or commerce at tertiary level. 

To evaluate the initiative, NZCER collected data through surveys and telephone interviews with students who participated in the Business of Science events, and interviews with staff from the University of Waikato and the Waikato Institute of Technology.
