Course Topic: STEM and STEAM

STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) is a broad term used in education and policy to group distinct but related technical disciplines.

This expression has appeared to raise awareness among policymakers about the importance of STEM subjects for contemporary society in front of the current shortage of workers able to fill STEM roles.

More recently, STEM has also included the letter ‘A’ for ‘Arts’ – hence becoming STEAM – with the idea that arts can help raise interest in STEM disciplines.
