The chart below shows the percentage of male and female academic staff members across the faculties of a major university in 2012.
The bar chart compares the gender distribution of male and female teaching
staff
in seven different subjects in a certain university in the year 2012.
Overall
, it is apparent that the most significant gap between the numbers of males and females can be witnessed in the major of engineering, while
such
a difference in the major of medicine is almost negligible.
Looking at the one-sided condition in the department of engineering, the figure for male staff
accounted for more than 80%. Similarly
, the disparity was less significant in law, with male academics occupying 60% of the total staff
. It is also
noticeable that business and science were in the same situation, with 65% male teachers, which was almost twice as much as that of females at 35%.
By contrast
, more female teachers worked in the department of education, making up approximately three-quarters of the total staff
, which was three times the figure for males. Additionally
, the percentage of female academic faculty in the major of arts was about 55% and that in medical school was around 50%.Submitted by Evalynn on
