The Problem

Learn how committed the toasters have been to promoting STE(A)M in their Video Titled:

 

A STEAM POWERED FUTURE...

 

The Problem:  Women make up 47% of the total U.S. workforce, but are much less represented in particular science and engineering occupations (U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Women in the Labor Force: A Databook, 2014). For example:
 
  • 39% of chemists and material scientists are women;
  • 27.9% of environmental scientists and geoscientists are women;
  • 15.6% of chemical engineers are women;
  • 12.1% of civil engineers are women;
  • 8.3% of electrical and electronics engineers are women;
  • 17.2% of industrial engineers are women; and
  • 7.2% of mechanical engineers are women.(http://www.ngcproject.org/statistics)
