Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics career cluster
The STEM cluster includes all careers that plan, manage, and provide scientific research and professional and technical services.
Science & Mathematics Pathway
People in this pathway are skilled at working with numbers, researching, statistics, problem solving, science, etc.
What are some of the jobs that fall into this pathway?
These can relate to a number of different jobs—anything from teaching science and math to being a lab technician for NASA! The weather person we look to for advice on what to wear each day also would work in this category. Some other jobs that fall into this pathway include anthropologists, ecologists, geneticists, research technicians, zoologists, and many, many more.
what type of education do you need for this pathway?
Most all jobs in this pathway require at least a bachelor’s degree or higher.
