Why is this important?
STEM is a curriculum based on real-world applications to educate students in four specific disciplines — science, technology, engineering and mathematics. The U.S. has historically been a leader in these fields, but recently, fewer students have been focusing on these topics. This impacts our future. Jobs in STEM fields are in demand and high-paying.
