Analysis Of The Attractiveness Of Science And Technology Studies
Journal Title: Mašinstvo - Year 2017, Vol 14, Issue 4
Abstract
In many countries, there is concern that enrolment in science and technology professions is decreasing and that more students need to be directed and interested in a career in science and technology. The reason why students do not choose science and technology studies is usually not about their abilities, but it is more related to student perceptions and attitudes about the attractiveness of subjects related to science and technology. Interest in science and technology studies is becoming an important issue given that more and more jobs in the field of science and technology remain empty, and technological trends create the need for new staff from science and technology disciplines every year. Numerous studies have shown that interest in science and technology has been declining with school years. Therefore, raising positive attitudes, motivation and interest in scientific and technological subjects becomes a key problem. This paper analyses the number of enrolled students in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina for the period from 2009 to 2017. From the analysis, we conclude that among the most popular studies are the those of social and humanistic sciences with a strong increase in the popularity of health studies, while studies related to natural sciences and technology have not yet gained the desired popularity. The aim of this research is to raise awareness of the neglect of encouraging studies in the field of technical sciences. Therefore, this research represents an introduction for future research on the attractiveness of technical studies.
