STEM jobs are on the rise, in fact, there will be 1.4 million new computer science jobs by 2020.

These new jobs pay better, 33% more than non-STEM positions.
Women are the perfect candidates for these new jobs. Women hold a greater percentage of all bachelor’s degrees,
Unfortunately, they also hold an increasingly smaller percentage of computer science degrees with just 18 percent in 2012 as compared to 37 percent in 1984.
Women represent 48 percent of the workforce but only a quarter of STEM and IT careers.
When women are in positions of leadership, there is a 35% higher return on equity and 34% better return to shareholders.

So let’s get some more women into the roles they can be qualified to fill.

At PBWC tomorrow, a group of Senior Women will continue the work to change the game. Tell me what you will do!!
