The article contains theoretical and methodological principles of research results, which is related to the problem of a professional orientation of student youth in connection with the introduction of STEM-education in educational institutions. Studying the essence of the problem and finding possible ways to solve it helped to clarify the features of STEM-projects, the principles of their application, the algorithm of actions of teachers and students, the formation of STEM-literacy. The purpose of professional orientation is self-determination of the individual, a conscious choice of profession, which allows a person to become a highly qualified specialist. Accordingly, the introduction of STEM-education in educational institutions will promote the self-determination of young people, as the purpose of STEM-education is to form and developmental, cognitive and creative qualities of young people that determine their competitiveness in the labor market. The principles of STEM-project construction are as follows: integrity is the association and interaction of educational and research activities of students; continuity is the process of long-term vocational education. A feature of the project STEM-activity is the collective work of student youth. Diversification of educational projects allows to involve students with different abilities. Educational and research activities of students unfold in the following sequence; study of the problem; formulation of hypotheses; planning of educational actions; data collection (facts, observations, evidence); analysis and synthesis of collected data; construction of conclusions and generalizations, protection of STEM-project. Thus, the implementation of STEM-projects in educational institutions will contribute to the effective solution of problems and tasks of career guidance work.
