STE(A)M for the future
The new science initiative has been named STEM for the future. STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics.
The organizations Abelia, Tekna (Teknisk-naturvitenskapelig forening), Nito (Norges ingeniør- og teknologorganisasjon), Fellesforbundet and Nasjonalt senter for realfagsrekruttering og IKT-Norge have launched a new initiative aimed at increasing recruitment to technology and science.
