I think they are also not well represented in Top positions in STEM careers.<br />It would be interesting have opinion from women scientists and collect info about students.<br />Sometimes teacher are in contact with students also after the diploma and they follow their life and their career. It would be interesting understand what happen when they go from high school to university and then work life <img alt="emoticon" src="https://www.scientix.eu/o/scientix-2025-theme/images/emoticons/happy.gif" >

Are they well represented in TOP positions in them?

<div class="quote-title">valeria manna:</div><div class="quote"><div class="quote-content"><br />Why are women represented in higher education in large numbers, but are not quite making it to the top?</div></div><br /><br />In my opinion, some women can&#39;t make it because other tasks are also demanding their time.<br />But, most importantly, many women don&#39;t make to the top because they are very clever and decide about their priorities in a different way than men, and being booses of heads or TOP is not one of them.<br /><br />What do you think?

Hello <br /><br />I had a look to the interesting website that Andreu sent some weeks ago (http://www.cec-wys.org/html/). Thanks Adnreu.<br /><br />And I found this question that I would like to post here and ask what do you think about it:<br /><br />Why are women represented in higher education in large numbers, but are not quite making it to the top?
