Today, September 15th, marks the start of Hispanic Heritage Month, which celebrates the culture, stories, and contributions of Latin-American citizens. Even though there’s a lot to celebrate, we still have a long way to go as hispanics are still underrepresented in many different areas, including STEM.
According to a report by the Student Research Foundation, hispanics are only 25% of the US student population. However, when you look at careers in STEM specifically, they represent no more than 8% of the people in these fields. Therefore, this episode is an introduction to a series dedicated to Latinos and Latinas in STEM, talking about how difficult―but rewarding―it can be, as well as what we can do to improve diversity in such fields.
