[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does STEM mean to this student? More like engineering or more like physics and mathematics?[/quote] As it says, SETM = Science, Engineering, Technology, Math[/quote] STEM is a broad field. Knowing whether the kid wants engineering, for example, can really influence the school because there are schools that have wonderful math and natural sciences that don’t offer engineering at all.[/quote] I didn't want to say it, because I know a lot of kids change their minds in college, but right now she says she wants to major in chemistry. If I had to bet right now where she would end up, I'd probably put my money on either chemistry or physics, because that's what she likes to read about. But I'd feel much more comfortable if the school has strengths in many STEM areas, because what if she takes a course in a different field and falls in love? That's what happened to me junior year![/quote]
