A Comprehensive Approach to Addressing Gender Equity in STEM Subjects at Four-Year Universities in England
This chapter explores gender disparities in enrollment and persistence in STEM undergraduate education in England. The authors examine the difference in early educational achievement in mathematics and science subjects and students’ plan to study STEM subjects by gender.
