What is your dream job in STEM? Statistician or data scientist.

What is one misconception about STEM that you want to break? I feel that STEM is sometimes seen as being rather rigid and noncreative, but it does have plenty of opportunities to do something unique. There are parts of STEM that are machine-like, but that doesn't mean it lacks creativity.

What is one piece of advice you would give to someone considering a STEM major? At least try it out. If you don't want to commit to a STEM major, why not start with a minor and if you like it pursue it further? If you chose not to, just make sure that you won't regret it later.
