Welcome to the virtual event of 12^th SoSE 2025 which takes place on 23^th August 2025. The Symposium on Science Education 2025 (SoSE 2025), now into its 12^th year, aims once again to showcase different ideas and techniques on innovative and effective teaching methods for STEM subjects.

With the theme of “Advancing STEM Education through Transformative Pedagogy. Menerajui Pendidikan STEM melalui Pedagogi Transformatif ". The symposium takes cognizance of the fact that digital technologies are part of innovative teaching methods in order to facilitate the teaching and learning of STEM to engage students' learning especially during pandemic era.

Nationwide, there is a steady decline in enrolment of students for science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) subjects or courses. This is a cause for concern because advancement of science and technology would define the country’s progress towards achieving its national key result areas.

This development is recognised by the education policy makers as well as institutions of higher learning in Malaysia. In cognizance of this concern, UTAR aim to make a difference. It is our mission to ensure that student interest in STEM subjects/courses remains a prominent and lasting feature wherever these are offered.
