The US celebrates National STEM Day every year on November 8 since its foundation in 2015.
With the advent of new technologies, employment opportunities in STEM areas are continuously growing.
According to United States Census Bureau, STEM workers who pursued a major in STEM field typically earn more than those who did not: $101,000 vs $87,600 on an average.
A degree in STEM does not guarantee a job but it does affect your level of pay i.e. higher than other degrees.
