Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics
Pathways in the Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) Area of Interest provide you with a foundation for several rewarding science and math careers, including medicine, data science, pharmaceuticals, engineering, higher ed and K-12 teaching, public service, civil works/building trades, aeronautics, network engineering, biochemical laboratory research, and computer science—hardware and software. You will deepen your understanding of how society can advance technologies and can propose practical solutions, symbolic language and expression, theories of motion, theories of space and time, and the macrosopic and microscopic world. You will gain skills in problem-solving, data collection and quantitative analysis, drawing evidence-based conclusions, research methods, applying and testing theories and hypotheses, working collaboratively, and safe laboratory methods critical to success in a STEM career.
Outcomes:
- Demonstrates proficiency with tools such as software or equipment, appropriate to the chosen STEM field
- Engage in the analytical process, by making observations, designing, implementing, and evaluating the approach (solution?)
- Demonstrate proficiency with interpreting data, and drawing evidence-based conclusions
- Communicate complex ideas using written, verbal, and visual methods appropriate for a given audience
- Collaborate effectively on complex projects
- Demonstrate capacity to transition to an academic or professional STEM field…. From these Hallowed halls
- Recognize the responsibility to positively impact both local and global societies through sustainable and ethical practices
