Abstract

In order to be able to propose any action to recruit female students in STEM programs, it is necessary to obtain a baseline with cross-referenced information that allows us to understand the behavior of this population in university higher education. In this article we present an analysis of the enrollment of male and female students in state and private universities. What has been the enrollment trend in a post-Covid-19 period. Finally, the distribution of students in science and engineering programs at the PUCP is presented.
