State of STEM Data Series

During this time of uncertainty, STEMconnector remains committed to providing you with resources and data to help you stay on top of the future of work.

The U.S. Department of Labor estimates only 6% of all jobs can be called “STEM jobs.” That tiny figure seems to pale in comparison to the enormous challenges faced by employers in building and sustaining qualified STEM talent pipelines. It seems we have a disconnect, whether in counting or perception.

So, STEMconnector set out to answer “What percentage of jobs count as STEM jobs?”

This is the second question in the State of STEM Data Series, which provides short, easily digestible sets of answers to the STEM talent data questions that our members face from inside and outside their organizations.

We provide analysis to answer this question in a short video format as well as a summary document for download.
