Project 1 - Analyzing the Education trends in Tamilnadu

Possible issues on the gender gap in STEM Jobs would be:

As we can see from the dashboard that more women are interested in health sciences rather than STEM fields. There can be many reasons for this like 

  1. Lack of role models: Women may not have as many female role models in STEM fields, which can make it more difficult for them to envision themselves in these careers.

  2. Societal pressures: Women may feel societal pressure to prioritize family and caregiving responsibilities over their careers, which can make it more difficult for them to advance in STEM fields.

  3. Lack of support: Women in STEM fields may not have the same level of support and mentorship as men, which can make it more difficult for them to navigate the field and advance in their careers.

  4. Inflexible work hours: STEM fields often require long work hours and inflexible schedules, which can be difficult for women who also have caregiving responsibilities.

To close the gender gap in STEM, it is important to address these issues through initiatives such as targeted mentorship programs, diversity and inclusion training, and policies that support work-life balance and family-friendly workplaces.
