Khmer Times: New STEM skill programme prepares students for global competition

Khmer Times

After years of promoting the benefits of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) skills in high school education, young Cambodians are seen to be sharpening their skills to keep pace with the rest of the world.

Ros Daro, a teacher in the pilot E2STEM school programme, being trialled at the Preah Yukunthor High School in Phnom Penh, says young people who study in the programme become competent when they realise the benefits and use of STEM skills.

The Ministry of Education is trying to encourage students and young people to become aware of the necessity of STEM competencies. To date, STEM provides many opportunities in the local job markets for young Cambodians and so having these skills makes it easier to deal with a variety of issues that one faces in daily life.
