Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics
Careers focused on planning, managing, and providing scientific research and professional and technical services (e.g., physical science, social science, engineering) including laboratory and testing services, and research and development services.
Pathways
- Engineering & Technology Pathway - People who applymathematics, science, and technology concepts to solve problems quantitatively in engineering projects involving design, development or production in various technologies. In addition, they recognize the core concepts of technology and their relationships with engineering, science and math, and other subjects. All future engineers and technologists should learn important science concepts and processes with an understanding of physics, chemistry, and biology as a minimal set.
- Science & Mathematics Pathway - People who understand the process and apply the skills necessary to engage in discovery while recognizing the need to obtain a broad education in science and mathematics to communicate this knowledge with the world. They have the role of gathering, creating, processing, and sharing data in science and mathematics; leading to career possibilities ranging from teachers to lab technicians to NASA astronauts.
