STEM the Wave of the Future
At NEED, we are making every effort to ensure that we begin at the middle school level equipping our adolescents with the tools to face the emerging fields of AI, life sciences, technology, data analysis, and math.
STEM - Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics
The STEM program aims to increase the number of African American females in STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) fields by generating enthusiasm through hands-on activities and field trips.
Research shows that the number of jobs in STEM fields is rapidly growing and that people in these fields generally earn higher wages than their counterparts in other careers. However, a study by the National Center for Science and Engineering Statistics showed that of all employed scientists/engineers, only 2% were black females. Our goal is to help reverse this trend and educate our young women on the benefits of pursing STEM careers.
