An excellent STEM career planning resource


For an overview of a particular STEM career, visit the Sloan Career Cornerstone Center. Much of the info is from the government’s Bureau of Labor Statistics website, except shorter and easier to read.

It covers the required schooling, day-in-the-life, salary, job market, and more. For each career, a 10-minute podcast goes over these key points.

Resources for middle school students also include links to Science Centers/Museums, Hands-On Projects (links to contests and programs), Summer Ideas (links to programs and camps), and Precollege Links.

Resources for high school students include The Scoop on Salary.

One page even has links to tons of games!
