STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. Former president of the United States of America Mr. Barak Obama once said, “Science is more than a school subject, or a periodic table, or the properties of waves. It is an approach to the world, a critical way to understand and explore and engage with the world, and then have the capacity to change the world”. With the help of scientists, engineers, and innovators a country progresses towards development. Any economy that encourages STEM becomes a global leader like the US, China, and India. Our world is becoming increasingly complex, and hence, the youth has to be equipped with the knowledge to be capable of re-creating science, innovating and developing technologies, and solve problems. The country has to make its priority to increase the number of learned professionals, such as teachers, who are proficient in STEM fields. By investing in education in such vital fields, all the pressing challenges faced by our country today and tomorrow can be deciphered.
