Growing the Next Generation of Engineers through STEM

Tetra Tech is helping grow the next generation of engineers and scientists, who will find solutions to the world’s most complex problems. Science, engineering, technology, and math—or STEM—skills help children understand how the world works and how to solve problems. Tetra Tech supports STEM education for children and advancing women and girls in STEM through various efforts including its 50th Anniversary STEM Campaign and its Future Engineering: The Clean Water Challenge children’s book.
