      Hi, I think the skills you can learn from STEM subjects can help young people find stable jobs and well earning careers. STEM subjects teach transferable skills as well as technical knowledge. Skills like problem solving, ability to analyse data and make judgements, teamwork, good communication skills.

      Hey,
      yes, definitely. Technology is the field that employs most people at the moment I think and the more the research advances the more people will be needed to cope with new demands and find solutions to new challenges. The job market is changing though, so you’ll have to be ready to be mobile and move around. Just my opinion though.
