“STEM — which stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics — encompasses a range of fields that fall under this umbrella, including careers in areas such as computer science and civil engineering. Only 24 percent of boys are interested in a career in STEM, as compared to 36 percent in 2017, according to the survey administered on behalf of Junior Achievement and Ernst & Young LLP. Girls’ interest remained stable, though low, with 11 percent interested in a STEM-related career.” (more)
