- Science, technology, engineering, and math — or STEM — are the basis for the educational products they produce. They are foundationally important subjects relevant to today’s society and essential for those economies that want to stay competitive. They consider scientific literacy as a funding priority because it helps to address the skills gap in today’s workforce
- Financial Literacy
