Abstract: Resilience plays an essential role in engineering education, as it affects not only students' academic performance and professional achievements (e.g., adaptability, self, self-control, optimism, persistence) but also the professional and personal well-being of both students and educators. This review focuses on resilience in education for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) majors, highlighting distinct conceptualizations of resilience, recent empirical research on resilience in STEM education, and the role of discourses, narratives, and social interactions in enhancing resilience enactment. In conclusion, we emphasize the need for pedagogical strategies to foster resilience enactment in STEM education and propose possible directions for future research.
