Project 1 - Analyzing the Education trends in Tamilnadu

Project 1

This dashboard empowers mission driven organizations to harness the power of data visualization for social change. Women are tracked away from science and mathematics throughout their education, limiting their training and options to go into these fields as adults. The data set contains the data of women graduated by years, employed persons, Stem Jobs by Education add Salary comparison. This dashboard addresses some major gaps between Men and Women in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics) fields.

Please write a detailed insight on what can be the possible issues on gender gap in STEM Jobs.

1. Lack of Role Models: The scarcity of visible female role models in STEM can be a significant barrier for aspiring women. Without relatable figures to look up to, women may struggle to envision themselves succeeding in STEM fields. Additionally, the lack of representation reinforces the perception that women are not welcome or valued in these professions.

2. Work Environment and Culture: The culture and work environment in STEM fields can be unwelcoming or hostile to women. Male-dominated workplaces may have ingrained biases, lack of inclusivity, and even instances of harassment, making it difficult for women to thrive or feel comfortable in their roles. A negative work culture can lead to higher attrition rates among women in STEM careers.

3. Work-Life Balance and Family Responsibilities: Balancing family responsibilities and demanding careers can pose unique challenges for women in STEM. The long hours, inflexible work schedules, and limited maternity leave options can make it difficult for women to pursue and sustain STEM careers. These challenges often lead to women opting for career breaks or choosing fields with greater work-life balance, contributing to the gender gap.
