Abstract

In order to adapt India’s educational system to the needs of the 21 st century, the
National Education Policy 2020, which is considered more inclusive and
progressive has been implemented. Simultaneously, STEAM education – an
inter/trans/multi-disciplinary approach that integrates Science, Technology,
Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics has become a global paradigm in
education, encouraging students’ critical thinking, creativity, and innovation.
This paper delves into the dynamic synergy between National Education Policy
2020 (NEP 2020) and STEAM education, emphasizing the potential of
developing a workforce that is knowledgeable and flexible by equipping
students with essential 21 st -century skills. Lack of research studies on the
integration of STEAM education in the context of Indian education system,
hindered a proper literature review.
