Abstract
The purpose of the article was to analyse and evaluate the state policy in the field of STEM education in Ukraine. To achieve the goal, a comprehensive approach was used, which included the analysis of scientific works and regulatory acts, comparative analysis and generalisation of the obtained data. As a result of the research, it was found that STEM education is one of the directions of the implementation of innovative activities in educational institutions of Ukraine. Educational methods and programmes of STEM education are focused on the development of key competences that are important in the modern labour market. These competencies include critical thinking, engineering thinking, the ability to develop and implement algorithms to solve problems, the ability to effectively collect, process and analyse large volumes of data, and digital literacy. The Government of Ukraine, realising the importance of the development of STEM education, actively supports the implementation of this direction. This is confirmed by a number of important steps and the adoption of a number of legislative acts. An important step on the way to large-scale innovation was the adoption of the Concept of the Development of STEM Education for 2020-2027 in Ukraine. Successful examples of the implementation of STEM education ideas in Ukraine are analysed. It was determined that Ukraine already has a global approach to STEM education at the national level. This approach includes a number of initiatives aimed at developing STEM competencies and encouraging young people to pursue STEM research. One of these initiatives is the creation of regional and local STEM centres. Under the conditions of martial law in Ukraine, the use of artificial intelligence becomes especially relevant. This innovation can help preserve and develop the country's intellectual resources. The implementation of artificial intelligence and other modern technologies in STEM education of Ukraine has the potential to make a significant contribution to improving the quality of education, developinginnovative potential, and training competitive specialists. In general, the main strategic directions of state support for STEM education are aimed at the development of critical thinking, engineering skills and digital literacy among young people. However, despite a number of successful programmes and initiatives aimed at developing STEM education, the effectiveness of their implementation is often limited by insufficient funding, the lack of modern STEM laboratories, and certain shortcomings in teacher training. An important aspect is the need to intensify cooperation between public and private educational institutions, business and communities to create a sustainable educational ecosystem.
