Science, Technology, Engineering and Math or STEM education has become more relevant to developing the critical thinking skills needed in the high-tech workforce for innovation and invention. While STEM offers higher-paying careers, the lack of females in these roles is contributing to the gender salary gap. If less than half the population isn’t contributing to new ideas, we aren’t getting the best ideas.
