Abstract: This review examines the literature for recent studies on STREAM (Science, Technology, Reading/Writing, Engineering, Art, Math) education in higher education, with an emphasis on the period between 2020 and 2025. It analyzes publications that meet these selection criteria and considers the approaches, years of publication, scope, methodologies, theoretical frameworks, main findings, implications of work, focus, subject area and the profile of teachers and learners. Our findings reveal that the integration of literacy in STREAM extends STEM and STEAM by encompassing cognitive higher-order skills, affective engagement, and values-based frameworks. Teacher preparation is represented in the literature as a strategic approach for effective future interdisciplinary education. Finally, limitations and prospects are discussed as notable perspectives for curricula transformations.
