From what i have seen, i can see girls in business, accounting, IT, art.......etc.
However, not many of them study engineering.
In your opinion, why is that?
Why few girls study / pursue engineering?

QUOTE(loui @ May 2 2010, 07:10 PM) engineering, especially civil related one are meant for men... There's truth to that. Most construction industry are male dominant with hard labour workers consisting of male. I pity women in this field though as they usually face constant sexist degradation usually on construction sites. the environment is too hostile for women... takkan u wan women go disco, with bunch of prostitutes beside u and go discuss the project with the developers... I think the building and construction industry should not introduce more women as these place are usually harsh and hazardous environment. Most local companies are even starting to go global and most of the projects are located in the middle east/third world country. Manufacturing is physically and mentally tough too. Women are best at desk and administrative jobs. While you might think this may sound sexist but a lot of top management positions are being filled by women while the men are the ones doing the field works. This is where you see those old single power-ladies in MNC's giving orders to male engineers. In the end Business Admin/Management female students can end up "pwning" the male engineering students in business organizations. This post has been edited by Hock1942: May 2 2010, 08:30 PM |

surprisingly, it's 50-50 female-male students in my uni the engineering faculty, when i was studying my eng. degree.
now that i teach part time in uniten, it's the same case. as for working, i can see that the electronic/electrical firms, like nokia, intel, agilent, freescale, sony, are female engineers dominated. oil & gas , building construction, male engineers dominated. |

depends on your discipline.
ee related (comp, etc) = 50% girls chem related (process, food, etc) = 30-40% girls civil = 10-20% girls mech related = 3-4 girls T_T |

This is related to feminism issue A discrimination of the female gender to be honest that such job are tough and women are not born biologically to fit into such harsh environment. That is not necessary true actually and what we see today is define by us, the society. There's not law that governs this 'wimminz go into bio while minz into physic' thing. |

stereotyping have been stamped on majority of the people's brain everywhere
for example nurse is a female frield, engineering is a male field, early childhood education is a female field and physic is a male field ... so on and so forth what we really need is to expose them since early age everysingle possibility they can have when they grow up and if they study hard |

For all my time in EE, my old college had 2 girls out of 50+ guys. Real batang fest.
Over here, 3 out of hundred plus in EE, a few in civil i guess. 0 in postgrad dept for EE Power subdivision. There quite are a few in Comp Eng, but i guess that's not my neck of the woods. Comp Eng has quite a few female lecs and i guess there's the lack of dirt and grime that makes it more appealing. I was taught my eng math, topology design and basic EE by 2 female lecs during my dip years. Great teachers they were. They went into teaching because they didn't like fieldwork i guess, which in a male dominated environment involves mostly strippers, sexist jokes, doing really stupid shit with company cars, oogling at chicks and so on. |

Less female pilots but zillions of air stewardess, funny isn't it?
sometimes we cant blame the world being sexist and discriminate females on some fields, but the reality is just too harsh to be handled by females. After u've been into it, then u will know why that specific world shouldn't have females involved. |
