The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $861,945 Project Grant under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program to the National Opinion Research Center (NORC) at the University of Chicago. The grant, awarded on September 1, 2025 with a completion date of August 31, 2028, will be used to map the job ladders and occupational mobility pathways in the STEM Skilled Technical Workforce (STW) - workers with technical skills but less than a bachelor's degree. The project will identify the key occupations, entry points, and mobility opportunities within the STW, and analyze how factors like teenage employment, parental occupation, and location impact access and advancement. The research findings will be disseminated through an interactive online tool, research briefs, and academic publications to benefit students, employers, and communities seeking to strengthen pathways into STEM technical careers.
