Importing STEM

How the United States Can Get More Women in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math

Leanna Chester,

About this book

Currently in the United States, we still do not have as many women working in STEM fields as we would like. Meanwhile, there are other places in the world where women thrive in STEM. What are we doing wrong? How can we improve?

Importing STEM: How the United States can get more women in science, technology, engineering and math addresses how the US can learn from the education systems and cultures in other countries in order to get more women into STEM. It also shares the stories of some amazing women currently thriving in different, often male-dominated, STEM fields.

In this book, you'll learn about cultural differences and technology including:

How we instill societal expectations in children based on their gender
The issues in tech that women face
How we can change our views to allow women to feel safe and thrive in a STEM career

Importing STEM is a tool to help create safe spaces for women and encourage young girls to pursue whatever path they want, even if everyone else tells them otherwise.
