Sustainable development education currently recognizes systems thinking as one of the eight essential competencies for addressing future sustainability challenges. However, are we truly offering an adequate number of opportunities for systems thinking to higher education students? Learning to comprehend complex systems also requires the expertise of educators and specialized teaching (Schuler et al., 2018). Through CMBF Fieldwork, collaboration among interdisciplinary educators provides students with a learning model. Students can query different professors based on issues arising from various contexts, allowing them to connect real-world experiences with textbook knowledge. Furthermore, in the real world, mismatches between reality and our perception of it often give rise to some of the most intricate and perplexing problems (Bateson, 1979). Hence, perspectives on systems thinking and addressing a variety of issues are indeed paramount (Cabrera & Cabrera, 2019).When students engage in collaborative learning and approach the challenges of scientific research, this structural approach to education offers them the opportunity to reevaluate their interest in scientific research and future careers. This study contends that we require more educational programs that provide students with the space for learning through Fieldwork, enabling them to experience the process of collectively solving problems, cultivating systems thinking. Furthermore, it is imperative to facilitate students' self-awareness and alignment with scientific research within the context of career exploration.
