There is a shortage in our country of young people majoring in STEM (Science Technology, Engineering and Math). The new term also refers to STEEAM and this includes English and the Arts. Many Engineering schools are now combining liberals arts with Engineering. Some Engineering schools also combine their curriculum with business.

 

The American Association of Blacks in Energy (AABE) is a national association of energy professionals dedicated to ensuring the input of African Americans and other minorities into the discussions and developments of energy policies, regulations, R&D technologies and environmental issues. AABE is also committed to increasing and developing minority professionals and to that end has created a scholarship program for minority high school seniors, who will be attending a four year college and majoring in science, technology, engineering, math and business with a goal of participating in the energy industry. For more information about AABE, you may visit the web site athttp://links.govdelivery.com/track?type=click&enid=ZWFzPTEmbWFpbGluZ2lkPTIwMTQwMTMxLjI4MjczNzAxJm1lc3NhZ2VpZD1NREItUFJELUJVTC0yMDE0MDEzMS4yODI3MzcwMSZkYXRhYmFzZWlkPTEwMDEmc2VyaWFsPTE2ODY1NDQ0JmVtYWlsaWQ9Ym93aWVwdHNvQHlhaG9vLmNvbSZ1c2VyaWQ9Ym93aWVwdHNvQHlhaG9vLmNvbSZmbD0mZXh0cmE9TXVsdGl2YXJpYXRlSWQ9JiYm&&&102&&&http://www.aabe.org/.
