STEM majors

Business degrees aren't generally considered STEM degrees, are they?

by Anonymousreply 14June 29, 2020 4:07 AM

Which of the four initials do you think business falls under?

Please show your work.

r1, I ask the questions. You supply the answers.

No, OP, they are not.

I’ve been told that a Bachelor’s degree in business isn’t worth it.

by Anonymousreply 3June 28, 2020 11:49 PM

Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.

You can figure this out OP, it's as simple as being a business major.

Girl, just stick to Sociology

There’s always an “executive MBA,” OP.

MBA is not worth it.

The term STEM has been outdated for years. The current term is STEAM, with Arts being added to the mix -To help improve creativity in problem solving.

STEAM refers more to a teaching philosophy r8.

When you get a degree in college you are getting a degree in a STEM field or you are not. Its the appropriate word.

R8 blah blah blah. I teach at one of the world's greatest STEM universities and I've never heard of "STEAM" so I googled it and its some kumbaya bullshit idea of very recent vintage. You can shart things out of your mouth with authority but doesn't make it true. STEM is STEM is STEM for crissakes.

Most STEM students blessed with superior IQ have creative talent and hobbies, too. There's nothing wrong with trying to beef up creative education in obligatory school - everyone benefits, including average IQ future STEM dullards who will become the drone workers, not the stars. I think its still to art and music to STEM - art and music and creative education should always be part of a general education - for everyone. Just as physical ed should be. It used to be so. Then the bookkeepers took over.

* should read "I think its silly to link to art and music to STEM only."

by Anonymousreply 13June 29, 2020 4:05 AM

As for OP - many stem universities - such as MIT, also have creative departments and certainly business schools so the diploma is from a STEM but the major/diploma is obviously not STEM. You needed to ask such a question?
