STEM Committee Description / Mission
ACM is on the forefront of STEM education. STEM education is more than just Science, Technology,
Engineering or Mathematics; it is an interdisciplinary and
applied approach that is coupled with real-world, problem-based learning. This
bridging among the four discrete disciplines is now known as STEM. STEM
education removes the traditional barriers erected between the four disciplines
by integrating them into one cohesive teaching and learning paradigm. Today,
new innovations and inventions tend to be made at the boundaries of these four
disciplines, where they naturally overlap.
A STEM-literate student is not only an innovator and critical thinker, but is able to make meaningful connections between school, community, work and global issues. A STEM-literate high school graduate can enroll in a college-level course of study in science, technology, engineering, and math without the need for remediation. STEM skills are increasingly necessary to engage in a knowledge-based economy. There is solid evidence to suggest that the fastest-growing and highest-wage jobs in future years will be in STEM fields and all employees will need to utilize STEM skills for problem solving in a wide range of industries.
Let Allegany College of Maryland help you begin your STEM education. We offer high quality STEM coursework, dedicated and quality faculty, and affordable tuition.
