The Dallas Morning News in an article on page 1J in its January 10, 2010, issue “Make Yourself Indispensable in the Workplace” by ARAcontent states “In fact, the U.S. Department of Labor predicts a growing demand for technological advances will result in a job growth of 22 percent for STEM occupations between 2004 and 2014.”
What exactly is STEM? STEM refers to careers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics.
Schools and universities are focusing their curriculums to developed students that are prepared to meet the needs of high tech organizations. This prediction does not mean that there is no place for liberal arts graduates; however, it does mean the graduates with STEM degrees will find an improved job market for their training.
What advice do you recommend for graduating high school students and others who are returning for additional training? Please share your opinions concerning STEM with other job seekers in this blog.
Thanks! Glyn
