STEM Role Models
STEM role models are individuals who excel in science, technology, engineering, or mathematics and serve as examples to inspire others. They demonstrate successful careers in these fields, showing that it’s possible to pursue such careers and make a difference. These role models can be professionals, researchers, or innovators who share their experiences and challenges, encouraging more people—especially underrepresented groups—to explore STEM subjects. Their visibility helps demystify these fields, foster confidence, and motivate the next generation to consider careers in science and technology.
