From 2024 to 2028, the forecasted number of females at the doctoral or equivalent level involved in study periods and/or work placements shows a steady increase. Starting at 14 in 2024, this figure rises to 16 by 2028. This growth indicates a trend toward higher female participation in advanced academic and professional experiences at this level.
