STEM Education

Building the skills needed to compete in the workforce of today and tomorrow

Computing and automation are transforming all industries and generating millions of new jobs that require professional and technical competencies.

Our STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) education programs equip students with the skills and mindset to be successful in today’s technology-driven workplace.

The Challenge

  • 40% of all U.S jobs are at risk of being lost to automation and robotics.
  • There are more than 7 million open jobs across all industries in the U.S. that require coding skills.
  • Between 2017 and 2027, the number of STEM jobs will grow 13%, compared to 9% for non-STEM jobs.
