This kind of education can prepare students to work confidently in a variety of job situations and different working environments. In present modern civilization, it is argued that the students need an education system which can prepare them both specialized, super specialized and humans. Accordingly, a new higher education model at the higher secondary level and college level is suggested with a liberal education concept which involves equal importance to Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & design, and Mathematics called the STEAM model. In this chapter, the importance, implementation, and expected outcome of such a liberal education system are discussed with emphasis on Arts& design. The advantages, benefits, constraints, and disadvantages of the STEAM model are studies using ABCD analysis from different stakeholders’ perspectives.
