These extra-curricular activities increased students’ interest in careers in STEM fields[22], [23], [26]. The structure and format of the learning experiences also played a role indeveloping interest in STEM and outcome expectations of STEM through hands-on activitiesand workshops, as well as content that was relatable to the students [20].In addition, guidance from parents, teachers and guidance counselors/academic advisors played

Others suggest it sometimes takes a little push to evoke interest and ability toconsider such issues that are not central in the disciplinary discourse of one’s field of studies.Watson et al. [21] suggest that increasing the expected level of incorporation of e.g.sustainability factors to the students’ work might promote students to start thinking aboutsocietal issues in more detail. Attempts to measure and assess the students’ abilities toimplement societal considerations, such as sustainability, into their engineering projects havebeen made [21]. However, students seem to tend to focus on technological solution orientedaspects of sustainability at the expense of a wider range of solutions
