Abstract

The article discusses the study on schoolchildren's perception on the participation of women in higher education in science and math as well as their contributions to science. The study reportedly involved a questionnaire-based survey method to assess students' interests towards math and science. The results revealed that more boys believe that science is a male domain than girls.
