The data indicates a consistent increase in the number of females participating in doctoral level study periods and work placements through EU programs from 2024 to 2028. Forecasted figures reflect steady annual growth, with the number expected to grow from 197 in 2024 to 284 in 2028. From 2023, the year-on-year growth rate suggests a gradual increase around 10.7% annually. Specifically, from 2024 to 2025, the growth is projected at approximately 11%, continuing to a similar extent each year, signifying a consistent upward trend over these forecasted years.
Future trends to watch for include:
- An increased focus on promoting female participation in STEM fields through doctoral programs, driven by initiatives aiming to reduce gender disparities.
- Potential impacts of policy changes within the EU on education mobility programs could influence the availability and structure of such opportunities for female academics.
- Evolving economic conditions and societal shifts could alter student mobility trends, affecting participation in these programs.
