- W4313444835 abstract "Science, technology, and innovation (STI) play a critical role in the socio-economic development of a country. Mauritius being a small island economy that does not possess natural resources except the ocean needs to further promote science and technology to achieve a higher level of innovation and economic growth. The economic development model of the country has since long been dependent on traditional economic sectors such as textiles, tourism, and financial services. These economic activities do not rely much on scientific contributions explaining the low interests of students to embrace the scientific fields of study. This paper analyzes the development of STI in Mauritius especially in the field of education over the last ten years using existing statistics, literature, and policy papers. Secondary school students prefer the business and economics stream over science subjects, with biology being the least preferred subject. At the tertiary level, the most popular streams in STI are information technology, engineering, medicine, and mathematics. Scientific publications in STI fields have increased significantly over the years yet Mauritius still lags behind many African countries. By providing examples of national policy decisions to improve the current STI situation, the paper makes a contextual contribution to Mauritius’s vision to invest in sectors that need and will derive benefits from enhanced scientific research outputs." @default.
