As America advances into the 21st century and industry becomes increasingly dependent on advanced technology, jobs related to science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) are going to become increasingly important and in demand. Data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics indicates that employment in occupations related to STEM is projected to grow to more than 9 million between 2012 and 2022, an increase of 1 million jobs over 2012 employment levels.
