  ABSTRACT: The issue of women being underrepresented in STEM careers has become a global concern.Literature review shows that imbalance in STEM careers based on gender is due to intrinsic and extrinsic factors.Thus, this study investigated the intrinsic and extrinsic factors that contribute to STEM careers’ interest. STEM career interest based on gender was also investigated. 354 secondary school students (14 years old) responded to a questionnaire. Descriptive and inferential statistics (MANOVA) were employed.The students showed a medium-high level of interest in STEM careers. Boys tend to show higher interest compared to girls.Therefore, all parties need to play their role in creating a positive perception of STEM careers by considering the needs of male and female students.
