For example, Project Managers andProduction managers on average earn more than $75,000 per year (NAHB’s 2014 Single-FamilyBuilder Compensation Study) and spend much of their time doing business management work.Interestingly, when the research participants learned this, over 57% said they would considerconstruction as a career choice.

On the other end of the spectrum, the industry’s need for a STEM-educatedworkforce is burgeoning with an expected growth of almost 7% in the next five years with 3.5million STEM jobs to be filled by 2025 [2]. The gap between need and availability is increasingrapidly. The number of unfilled STEM jobs has been projected to be 2.4 million by the end of2019 [3].Sandwiched between these two challenges is the challenge of retention of undergraduate studentsin STEM fields. According to a Department of Education report [4], almost 50% ofundergraduate STEM majors do not continue in STEM. According to the 2012 report by
