Description
This podcast shares stories from people in the STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) fields who have had a nonlinear/nontraditional career pathway or have spend a significant amount of time outside the STEM fields. The goal is to break the "born scientist" stereotype, to foster a sense of belonging and inclusivity in the STEM fields, and to encourage more people, especially students, to pursue their careers in STEM regardless of their backgrounds.
