Industry Needs Assessment

<< View all Programs & Services


The Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development is partnering with the SCSU Innovation Hub and the BioPath team.

The 2025 STEM Needs Assessment project was made possible by a grant to the SCSU Innovation Hub by the Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development for the purpose of helping to alleviate the #1 barrier to modernizing and expanding CT’s tech economy: workforce development. Please note that the 2025 assessment includes all STEM disciplines as well as emerging technologies.

With your help, institutions of higher education across Connecticut will utilize the INA’s data set and final report to enhance curriculum development and improve how we transform STEM students into key players in tomorrow’s tech economy.
