Americans made 80 percent of all scientific discoveries from the 1930s to the 1960s. The United States owes its status to its investment in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education. Today, many countries are following suit by offering STEM education programs, improved infrastructure, numerous research opportunities, STEM scholarships, and active government support.
"The United States has been the dominant science superpower since the 1950s. As a result, in the early 1960s, the United States was spending seven times more money on scientific research than Europe," said Carolina Cabral Murphy, Co-Founder of MicroEmpowering.
Focusing on college education and offering STEM scholarships to college students will not suffice. Those who obtain STEM degrees typically start to show interest in science by age 11. This means that interest in science and mathematics must be nurtured and encouraged during childhood.With this challenge in mind MicroEmpowering.org launched an App called Curiosity School - STEM education series.
