In 2023, the actual number of female tertiary education graduates in engineering, manufacturing, and construction in Brazil stood at 45,000 persons. From 2024 to 2028, the forecast indicates a steady increase from 46.46 to 51.8 thousand persons. This reflects an annual growth, with year-on-year increases of approximately 2.94%, 2.83%, 2.71%, and 2.55%. The five-year average compound annual growth rate (CAGR) suggests a consistent rise in female graduates within these fields.
Future trends to watch for include the increased integration of diversity initiatives within educational institutions, which may accelerate growth. Additionally, partnerships between academia and industry could foster enhanced practical education paths, potentially increasing graduate numbers further.
