The number of females pursuing doctoral or equivalent level studies, with or without combined work placement, is expected to increase from 3s in 2024 to 5s by 2028. This reflects an expected average annual growth (CAGR) in enrollment numbers over this five-year forecast period. Despite no data is available from 2023, the forecast suggests a positive trend and increasing interest among females in advanced academic pursuits.
Future trends to watch for:
- Increasing opportunities and incentives for women in STEM fields could further enhance this growth trend.
- Impact of government policies and funding on doctoral education access.
- Shifts in global labor market demands potentially influencing doctoral program enrollment rates.
