The current lack of STEM-centric education increasesrestrictions on teachers to integrate project-based learning into the classroom, as well as thepressure to build an inclusive education system for all. According to research conducted todetermine the effectiveness of teacher preparation for STEM subjects, students consistentlyachieved higher academic results learning under teachers who already had higher educationcertification in an academic field, STEM or otherwise [2]. Additionally, elementary schooleducators rate their confidence in teaching math and literature at approximately 80%, while theyfeel significantly less prepared to teach

There was a shift in academic staff recruitment fromprofessional practitioners in engineering to those graduating with higherdegrees in engineering from Australian universities. By 1988 when thebifurcation of higher education ended, engineering courses at the “oldtechnical colleges” resembled those of traditional universities with deeplyingrained norms of science. The science hegemony became further entrenchedin engineering education when as a result of poor intakes into science in manyuniversities the faculties of science and engineering merged.
