Educ. category including chemistry and coding crossword clue

1 Across · WSJ Crossword, May 12, 2026 · 4 letters

Answer
STEM
STEM (4 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Educ. category including chemistry and coding” is STEM. It appears as 1 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of May 12, 2026, a Tuesday puzzle titled “Highlights” by Aidan Glenn, and it fills 4 squares running left to right from row 1, column 1 of the 15×15 grid.

The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with S and ends with M, and contains 1 vowel and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Tuesday puzzles stay approachable with light wordplay, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
