Abstract

This research seeks to understand which skills entrepreneurs in the different STEAM disciplines are using in their careers and if these skills differ from those being used by workers who major in STEAM fields but do not become entrepreneurs. The empirical analysis uses a large sample of more than 99,000 people from the restricted use National Science Foundation’s (NSF) Scientists and Engineers Statistical Data System (SESTAT). This work investigates the skills actually being used by entrepreneurs with undergraduate degrees in the STEAM disciplines to better inform what is being taught in the undergraduate classroom and to make sure learning objectives are in line with student career goals. This paper argues the need for more interdisciplinary skills to be taught in STEAM entrepreneurship curriculums.
