STEMPath – AI Career & Learning Guide
Inspiration
A lot of students like science and technology but don’t know which STEM job fits them best. Career advice online can be confusing or hard to find. We wanted to fix that by making an AI helper that gives personalized STEM career ideas and shows students how to start learning for them.
What it does
STEMPath is a website that asks short quiz questions about your interests and strengths. Then it uses artificial intelligence to suggest the best STEM careers for you — like robotics engineer, data scientist, or environmental researcher. It also gives learning steps and resources to help you begin your journey.
How we built it
We built STEMPath with:
Streamlit to make the website easy to use
Python and pandas for data and logic
SentenceTransformer AI model (HuggingFace) to understand user answers
PyTorch for running the model
Streamlit Cloud to host the website
We trained the AI to compare what people say in the quiz with descriptions of many STEM careers and find the closest matches.
Challenges we faced
Making the AI run fast on Streamlit without slowing the site
Writing a quiz that works for all kinds of students
Getting the AI to give real, natural answers instead of random text
Keeping the app simple and easy to use on phones and laptops
Accomplishments we’re proud of
Built a working AI career guide from scratch
Created something that can really help students plan their futures
Learned how to combine coding, data, and AI into one useful tool
What we learned
How to use language models to understand people’s answers
How to deploy an app online for everyone to try
How good design and simple words make AI more helpful
What’s next for STEMPath
Next, we want to:
Add a system where users can rate their career results
Give real learning links (videos, courses, books) for each career
Let teachers use it in class to guide students
Expand it to non-STEM careers later
