Nate from Nomad Credit explains the STEM shortage in the U.S. and how that may affect international students ability to gain a job.

• Many international students coming to study in the U.S. choose to pursue a Masters of Science degree.
• This can be a good choice, partly because the chances to gain employment after graduating are high.
• One reason for this is that there is a shortage of STEM majors in the U.S.
• As technology and the sciences continue to grow, the jobs that correspond with those industries are also growing.
• Furthermore, this shortage is not going away.
• As of 2014-2015, there were an additional 230,246 STEM jobs and yet only 30,835 additional STEM graduates.
• STEM graduates are in hot demand.
