For example, the impact of Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico’s electrical infrastructureled to a slow and painful rebuilding process of the power system that has not finished. Thissluggish process has had many problems as in the case of the numerous power outages due to theunstable energy generation and supply system.

Formal education and training inScience, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics (STEM) subjects is very important to meet thetechnical occupational needs in transportation. However, research has shown that enrolment inundergraduate degree programs in STEM fields are declining and that for students who major inSTEM-related degree programs at college, many fail to complete their degrees or enter a STEM-related job field7, 8.

Moreover, only 28% of adults in the United States are classified as civicscientifically literate [3]. While a multitude of initiatives and approaches have
