The power of STEM-based education will never be underestimated. As a society, we are increasingly dependent on advanced technology, even in industries that may not initially seem directly related to STEM, making this type of education absolutely critical. Skills acquired through science, technology, engineering and mathematics will continue to be essential to our society far into the future.
In the coming years, it is likely that advances in STEM will continue to have a greater and greater impact on our lives. One way this will happen is by incorporating more robotics. Thousands of jobs will disappear due to robotics and automation, while thousands more will be created, mostly in fields related to the management and maintenance of robotic systems. To prepare for this, our students will have to learn about robotics and become the innovators of tomorrow.
