The Irish government, through its policies, has harnessed the economic potential of globalization by attracting and rewarding foreign direct investment by multinational corporations (MNCs). To sustain its economic prowess, the Irish education system must adapt if it is going to produce the knowledge-based workers needed to feed the economy. The Irish education system must produce globally competitive students who possess the 21st-century skills demanded by high-technology manufacturing and service industries. To stay competitive, students will require a high level of scientific and technological literacy to work in the growing scientific and engineering careers that are enhanced by participation in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) experiences provided through project-based learning (PBL) strategies, such as science and technology fairs.This study examined the collective perceptions of a variety of stakeholders, including teachers, principals, parents, students, civic leaders, college and university professors, and MNC representatives, regarding the influence of STEM education and the influence of globalization and educational policy as they pertain to the development of 21st-century skills, inquiry-based learning, and gender imbalance in STEM coursework and school leadership. This study also examined how participating in science competitions such as SciFest influences students, particularly female students, to enroll in senior-level and third-level STEM courses, subsequently culminating in the pursuit of STEM-related careers.The principal findings of this qualitative and quantitative case study indicated that participation of students in PBL science competitions such as SciFest helps students feel better prepared to take the Leaving Certificate Examination, encourages female students to pursue senior-level and third-level STEM courses, and gives students exposure to the 21st-century skills that they will need to be successful. The challenge remains that despite these data, school leadership remains the most critical piece in determining student access to participation in PBL-based science and technology fairs.
