Not enough students around the world choose to study science subjects at university. what are the reasons for this? what impact does this issue have on society?

Technology is rapidly changing the lives of people around the world, creating a high demand for

university

graduates with a background in

science

.

However

, the number of students studying

relevant subject

Suggestion

the relevant subject

is well below the required level.

This

problem seems to be caused by outdated preconceptions, which determine young people's choices today. One of those preconceptions is that certain subjects are better suited for men. Examples of these include mathematics, computer

science

, technologies and other fields of knowledge, which are totally dominated by males. In recent decades, a noticeable progress has been achieved by many countries in acknowledging that men and women are equally capable in

science

. Despite

this

big step towards equality, female employees may still feel unwelcome or, in some instances, face evident discrimination in male-dominated work environments.

As a result

, many women with a natural inclination to

science

settles in studying humanities or social

science

at

university

, depriving society of their main talent. Another reason for the lack of

science

students spreads even wider. In the past, scientists were paid significantly less than professional in

such

prestigious areas as business and law.

Therefore

disregarding their aptitude for

science

. Things have changed, today jobs in

science

are among those with highest remuneration, but

this

trend is yet to be reflected in the

university

application numbers.

For example

, in the UK, over half of the international students still choose to study for a degree in business.

Consequently

economies around the world are affected with an oversupply of social

science

graduates with technical skills. Not surprisingly, complaints of fresh graduates who cannot find are frequent. To Conclude, it seems some young people still perceive studying

science

as a route towards a mediocre income from a job where most of one's colleagues are men.

Thus
