STEM and STEAM are important because they pervade every part of our lives. Science is everywhere in the world around us. Technology is continuously expanding into every aspect of our lives. Engineering is the basic designs of roads and bridges, but also tackles the challenges of changing global weather and environmentally-friendly changes to our home. Mathematics is in every occupation, every activity we do in our lives. Through exposure to STEM\/STEAM \u2013 related topics, people, especially students, can develop a passion for it and see the opportunities open to them in the STEM field.
