Historically, women have not been encouraged to go into math and science fields, and have even been discouraged from going into math and science fields. Madame Marie Curie, who was the first person to win two Nobel Prizes, was not permitted to enter the university in her native Poland and had to go to France in order to go to university.
They do, as do many fields that are not science.
Most likely the low number of women in science and its related fields are do to a long standing social view of it being a man's job. But as gender walls are torn down the number of women in scientific field will grow.
they both use numbers........CAUC
This should be based on interest, not gender. It all depends on if the person likes math/science or not.
Yes. Any medical fields require a lot of math and science.
No, it's part of science. Specifically chemistry, but it is used in almost all fields of science.
Yes.
This is just a stereotype and not a fact.
It really depends on fields. In my view the 3 most important math fields that are important in computer science are: Discrete maths - Set theory, logic, combinatorics Number theory - Vital in cryptography and security. Geometry and Matrices - Game theory etc.
Depends on the type of science. Calculus is common in many branches of science as it is an important part of physics, and physics is an important part of science. Discrete mathematics are important to computer science and related fields.
Yes, all engineering fields have intense math and science requirements.
In the U.S.A. the advantages for females in a co-ed school are far fewer than for the females in an all-girl school or college. Girls will enter middle school and start "dumbing down" in science and math classes or they will be treated in a biased manner by teachers in these fields. Females from all-women colleges earn more after graduation and attain higher career positions.
