Re: STEM vs. STEAM

I was always under the impression that the goal of promoting STEM is to encourage young people to go into STEM fields, i.e. society wants to graduate more Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics majors.

STEAM includes Art, but I doubt that society wants to graduate more Art majors. Rather, STEAM could be the description of what well rounded STEM majors need to learn, particularly the Engineering part of STEM.
