In his keynote at the MA STEM Summit last week, Raytheon CEO William Swanson announced that his company will increase its earlier pledge of support to the Boston Museum of Science’s Education is Elementary (EiE) program by an additional $1 million. This fund, part of the company’s MathMovesU initiative, will create the Raytheon-EiE Teacher Scholarship fund to facilitate teacher access to STEM training and materials. In his keynote, Swanson emphasized the need for better alignment between academia and business regarding workforce development, pointing out that too many students and adults are training for jobs in which labor surpluses exist and demand is low, while high-demand jobs, particularly those in STEM fields, go unfilled. Swanson also unveiled new videos outlining Our STEM Challenge and Raytheon’s Support of STEM Education.
