In the era of digital transformation, integrating Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) into education has emerged as a pivotal strategy for enhancing the quality and relevance of teaching, particularly in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) fields. This study investigates the current state, challenges, and opportunities of digital pedagogy in Cameroon's higher education system, with a focus on ICT-driven teacher training programs aimed at improving STEM instruction. Drawing on both qualitative and quantitative data from teacher educators, trainee teachers, and policy documents, the research evaluates how digital tools are employed in pedagogical practices and the extent to which they align with the national vision for higher education modernization. The findings indicate a growing adoption of digital pedagogy in STEM education, albeit constrained by infrastructural deficiencies, inadequate training, and uneven ICT policy implementation. The study concludes by proposing a strategic framework for institutionalizing ICT-based teacher training programs to sustainably promote STEM education in Cameroon.
