SLJ Review of STEM Career Choices
This series is packed with up-to-date and relevant information in a variety of traditional and outside-the-box STEM fields. In five different volumes, covering business, computer science, engineering, healthcare, math, and science, myriad career paths are presented to readers using a balanced combination of color photos, diagrams, fast facts, inspirational quotes, and more. The volume about STEM careers in business presents nonprofit directors, business professors, and social and community managers as potential careers, offering a unique perspective not seen in other recent series, making these books a well-rounded investment that serves readers’ diverse and nuanced interests. Attention is brought to aspects of certain careers that some might overlook; for example, the book about careers in math points out that there are plenty of opportunities in freelance work for those who want flexible schedules, and the book about business STEM careers calls attention to the daily schedule challenges of a nonprofit director. VERDICT This series is richly detailed and chock-full of great information about common and lesser-known STEM careers; an ideal addition to large public library collections and STEM school libraries.
