联系方式：herbertk@montclair.edu美国在STEM领域，特别是在计算/技术领域，没有足够数量的合格专业人员。攻读计算机科学或相关领域本科学位的学生数量持续增长，但仍未跟上行业增长的步伐。雇主一再表示，良好的专业和技术能力，包括“软技能”，是获得STEM职业并取得成功的主要因素。此外，研究生学习理事会和国家科学委员会在NSF 2018 STEM趋势报告中支持这些技能对STEM成功的需求。这些能力包括（1）沟通，口头和书面，并在技术，商业和一般设置;（2）工作和领导团队，在不同的角色;（3）管理业务和专业关系;（4）规划，解决问题和批判性思维;（5）数学能力，包括计算能力;和（6）道德，社会，管理和经济观点的理解。此外，应对科学和科学职业的最新发展，（7）跨学科的视角和对数据科学的全面理解。在这张海报中，我们提出了一个学士后证书课程的建议，我们建议这也有助于学生从其他领域过渡，并可以在STEM中更广泛地应用。
Contact: herbertk@montclair.edu The United States does not produce sufficient numbers of well-qualified professionals in STEM, and in computing/ technology in particular. The number of students pursuing undergraduate degrees in computer science or related field continues to grow but is still not pacing industry growth. Employers repeatedly suggest that good professional and technical competencies, including "soft skills", are a major factor in both obtaining and succeeding in STEM careers. Moreover, both the Council on Graduate Studies and the National Science Board in the NSF 2018 STEM Trends report support the need of such skills for success in STEM. These competencies comprise (1) communication, oral and written, and in technical, business and general settings; (2) working in and leading teams, in varying roles; (3) managing business and professional relationships; (4) planning, problem solving, and critical thinking; (5) mathematical capabilities including numeracy; and (6) an understanding of ethical, social, managerial, and economic perspectives; plus, responding to recent developments in science and science careers, (7) an interdisciplinary perspective and overview understanding of data science. In this poster we present a proposal for a post baccalaureate certificate curriculum, which we suggest also assists students transitioning from other fields, and can be applied more widely across STEM.
