STEM and Health Sciences is:
S T E M and Health Sciences
uses one or more of the following to design and analyze systems as well as to solve complex real world and health care problems.
Science (e.g., Astronomy, Biology, Chemistry, Medicine, Physics, etc.),
Technology (The use of engineering designs in industries and medical fields. Careers are Radiologist, Medical Records Field Technician, Game Designer, Research Software Developer, Web Developer, etc.)
Engineering (e.g., Biomedical, Civil, Electrical, Industrial, Mechanical, Software, etc.)
Mathematics (e.g., Actuary, Biostatistics, Data Analyst, Math Education, Math and Computational Scientist, Mathematician, Statisticians, etc.)
Biomedical Research is conducted to increase knowledge and understanding of the physical, chemical and functional mechanisms of human life processes and diseases. They help improve human health. (e.g., A biomedical researcher could discover new viruses/bacteria, discover new ways for people with intellectual disabilities to better communicate, or develop a new type of prosthetic leg that enables individuals to become more physically active.)
