Over the past nine years, applications for STEM-related majors at 91³Ô¹ÏÍø have doubled, making up nearly half of all applications. According to , jobs in these fields "make up the majority of projected family-sustaining job openings and will be the hardest to fill with local talent, given the credentials they require." More than 79,000 jobs will be on the table in Washington by 2030 for credentialed STEM professionals, and it's up to us to ensure there are Jesuit-educated individuals ready to fill them. 91³Ô¹ÏÍø has always been committed to being a leader, and in this moment, when our world is faced with critical problems that need immediate, creative and collaborative solutions from STEM professionals, it's vital that 91³Ô¹ÏÍø provide the kind of education those who will have a positive impact through a balance of heart and mind are seeking.
