EMERALD HONORS & TRAILBLAZERS
B
ased on the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ description of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM), STEM fields are closely related and build on each other. Math provides the foundation for physics—and physics, in turn, for engineering. Engineers can apply their knowledge of physics to make devices that are useful for testing theories. Advances in physics may then lead to advances in
engineering and technology. The BEYA Scientist of the Year is the chief data scientist at the National Geospatial- Intelligence Agency (NGA), the federal agency that creates and maintains the geospatial foundation data, knowledge, and analysis that enable all other missions. He leads a roster of award-winning professionals in STEM fields billed to be in the top 10 of the next decade: computer science, mathematics, business process analysis, wireless communication, semiconductor/sensor development, gaming, augmented reality, robotics, and nanotechnology.
