Forecast: Female Share of Graduates in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) in Tertiary Education in France

The female share of graduates in STEM fields in France is forecasted to grow modestly from 14.6% in 2024 to 14.75% by 2028. In 2023, the figure stood at an actual value below these projections. Year-on-year growth is subtle, showing a steady but slow upward trajectory. Over the last two years, any significant variation is negligible. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year period indicates a marginal increase, reflecting the slow progress in bridging the gender gap in STEM education.

Future trends to watch for:

  • Impact of government policies and initiatives on women's participation in STEM fields.
  • Institutional efforts to encourage female enrollment in STEM courses in tertiary education.
  • Technological advancements and shifts in industry demand influencing educational pursuits.
  • Societal changes and role models that may inspire more women to enter STEM fields.
