Why STEM Courses Matter
“Scientific and technological innovations have become increasingly important as we face the benefits and challenges of both globalization and a knowledge-based economy. To succeed in this new information-based and highly technological society, students need to develop their capabilities in STEM to levels much beyond what was considered acceptable in the past.”
“We will always have STEM with us. Some things will drop out of the public eye and will go away, but there will always be Science, Engineering, and Technology. And there will always, always be Mathematics.”
