In fact, it's estimated that 3. With STEM jobs though, we are talking about, well, jobs. A living. There is no shortage of people who need jobs to make money and earn their livings. Google, Facebook, Apple, Amazon, and on and on. STEM powers all of them. Not to mention the sheer breadth of everything STEM touches. If you have an interest in something, anything, there is a STEM job counterpart.
Generally, this is an obvious issue of supply and demand, right? Nor is it something being ingrained or even presented early enough - or often enough - in the lives of today's children. Between and , the number of STEM jobs will grow 8 percent, a higher rate than non-STEM jobs—with positions in computing, engineering, and advanced manufacturing leading the way.
Via a article from Pew Research Center. Via the Education Commission of the States. Via the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The US placed 30th of 64 countries in math, and 11th in science. This is according to the Programme for International Student Assessment PISA —which is regarded as one of the biggest cross-national tests of its kind. Via American Affairs. But only 0. There are sizable pay gaps between women and men in STEM jobs as well as across racial and ethnic groups.
Say "Alexa, enable the Pew Research Center flash briefing". It organizes the public into nine distinct groups, based on an analysis of their attitudes and values. Even in a polarized era, the survey reveals deep divisions in both partisan coalitions. Use this tool to compare the groups on some key topics and their demographics.
Pew Research Center now uses as the last birth year for Millennials in our work. President Michael Dimock explains why.
About Pew Research Center Pew Research Center is a nonpartisan fact tank that informs the public about the issues, attitudes and trends shaping the world. It conducts public opinion polling, demographic research, media content analysis and other empirical social science research.

Citizenship and Immigration Services. Students and employment. The U. Over the course of their education, graduate students become involved in advancing the frontiers of discovery, as well as in making significant contributions to the growth of the U. However, continuous, dramatic innovations in research methods and technologies, changes in the nature and availability of work, shifts in demographics, and expansions in the scope of occupations needing STEM expertise raise questions about how well the current STEM graduate education system is meeting the full array of 21st century needs.
Indeed, recent surveys of employers and graduates and studies of graduate education suggest that many graduate programs do not adequately prepare students to translate their knowledge into impact in multiple careers.
This report explores how the system might best respond to ongoing developments in the conduct of research on evidence-based teaching practices and in the needs and interests of its students and the broader society it seeks to serve. This will be an essential resource for the primary stakeholders in the U.
STEM enterprise, including federal and state policymakers, public and private funders, institutions of higher education, their administrators and faculty, leaders in business and industry, and the students the system is intended to educate.

This is particularly true when one considers the following: The pool of potential STEM graduate students is increasingly diverse, and research disciplines and institutions are striving—though many continue to struggle—to be more inclusive and equitable, in terms of both representation and institutional climate. Progress in increasing diversity and improving the success of all students, notably students from groups historically underrepresented in STEM, is needed to produce the talent pool that drives the discovery of knowledge and the application of that knowledge in all sectors of life.
