In fact, between 2017 and 2027, the number of STEM jobs will grow 13 percent. To succeed in college and the workplace, students require a solid foundation in STEM learning. Experience in these subjects does not only benefit aspiring scientists and engineers–it’s essential for all students. Even positions in traditionally non-STEM fields ( estimated to grow by 9 percent ) will require some sort of technological knowledge.

It’s a persistent and troubling problem: Why are girls so underrepresented in STEM clubs and subjects in K-12 through college, and why are there so many more men than women in STEM fields? The call for equal representation is becoming louder, and society is striving to solve glaring gender gaps in STEM graduates and STEM fields across the country.
