In nearly all science courses at university, there are significantly more male students than female students. What is the reason for this? What could be done to balance out the numbers?

The male domination in the

science

courses

is becoming increasingly popular, especially in recent past years and has gained much more scholarly attention. Nowadays, more and more Universities are experiencing growing demand for

science

-related

courses

among male students compared to

females

.

This

essay will discuss the reason why

this

is happening and will provide solutions to making STEM

courses

more attractive among

females

. Admittedly, it is true that a higher percentage of males are getting interested in enrolling on

science

courses

like engineering, medical and research, compared to

females

, who often opt for studies in teaching, fashion and interior designing. The most important reason for

this

is society's influence and lack of guidance.

For example

, the children tend to follow the traditional approach where the field of STEM was more dominated and fit for males compared to

females

.

Moreover

, they even lack getting

right

guidelines in selecting the career that interests them.

Although

some legitimate concerns for universities in maintaining the

right

gender balance for the

science

courses

.

However

, these issues can be looked after well by several precautionary measures. The

first

and foremost is, by encouraging seminars to create awareness about the benefits and availability of a wide range of

courses

.

For example

, the Government can arrange compulsory seminars in secondary schools, which can help the children in making a decision about selecting the

right

career for themselves. The

Second

solution is, by reserving some seats for

females

.

For example

, Some Government funded

courses

often reserve seats for males and

females

to maintain the

right

gender balance and equality. To conclude, I believe, most of the

science

courses

at universities have significantly more male students than female, despite

this

, it can be looked after well by following the above mention steps.
