[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In Singapore, the government deliberately combined some male-dominated degree programs with some female-dominated degree programs at one of the universities to try to balance the genders somewhat. It mostly works, too. Small LACs are fine for pre-med/pre-law, but often do not offer engineering and that pushes the gender ratios towards women. By the same token, smaller colleges that are narrowly STEM-focused (especially engineering focused) such as RIT, RPI, WPI, or Olin have the opposite issue - gender ratio biased towards men. Given the high and sustained demand for undergraduate engineering programs, maybe some LACs should open engineering programs. [/quote] The top SLACs are among the most gender balanced schools in the country. It is large public’s with the biggest problems.[/quote]
