Abstract
This study aims to provide an overview of the career interests profile of students aged 13-15 years in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) in Indonesia. This study used a descriptive survey research design. The data is collected by using the STEM-Career Interest Survey (STEM-CIS). The survey sample consisted of 263 random online surveys using Google Forms. Analysis of the average student STEM-CIS data per question item was carried out to describe each aspect of social-cognitive career theory (SCCT). Based on the results of STEM-CIS, the average value of students' STEM career interests in the science field is 3.37, the technology field is 3.57, the engineering field is 2.95 and the mathematics field is 3.42. The implication of this research is to provide suggestions for suitable and more effective career counseling programs to increase students' interest in STEM careers.
