What propels groundbreaking innovations, drives our modern world, and paves the way for a promising future? The answer is STEM!
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, occupation in the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) fields is projected to grow at twice the rate (10.8%) of overall employment (5.3%) through 2031.
