Mathematica Policy Research Reports from Mathematica Policy Research

Abstract: For many years, there have been many job vacancies in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), but not enough workers to fill the vacancies. This study aims to address this dilemma by understanding what may be gained by investigating students’ attitudes towards STEM in high school.
