This indicator reflects the proportion of female graduates within the tertiary education sectors of Engineering, Manufacturing, and Construction, conveyed as a percentage of the overall graduate population in these fields. By analyzing this percentage, we can assess gender representation and equity in traditionally male-dominated disciplines, which are crucial for driving innovation and economic growth. A higher ratio of female graduates may signal
improvements in educational outreach and social change, fostering diverse perspectives in technical industries. Conversely, a lower percentage may highlight systemic barriers that hinder female participation. Tracking this indicator over time can help stakeholders implement targeted initiatives to promote gender inclusivity in these vital sectors, ultimately supporting a more balanced workforce and sustainable development.
