Who is that girl? Drawing a portrait of a female student in Software Engineering
This program is tentative and subject to change.
Despite the progress in gender equality, women remain underrepresented in computer science (CS) and software engineering (SE) fields due to entrenched stereotypes and limited exposure during early education. Educational institutions can address this by implementing gender-inclusive activities and enhancing female enrollment, environment, and learning processes. Understanding the traits and needs of female students is crucial for effective interventions. This scoping review of 53 studies from 2015 to 2022 reveals key findings such as high academic achievements, familial support, low programming experience, biases, and a desire to prove competence. Interestingly, despite self-doubt, women excel in project management within teams. The study offers insights for initiatives aimed at rectifying gender imbalances in CS and SE.
