The provided bar chart compares the proportion of male and female students enrolled in six different art-related subjects at a UK university in 2011. The data is presented for Linguistics, Philosophy, English language and literature, History and Archeology, Art and Design, and Communication and Media Studies.
Overall, the chart shows that in most of the subjects, there was a greater number of female students than male students. This was particularly noticeable in Linguistics and English language and literature. The only subject with more male students than female students was Philosophy. In the remaining subjects, while females still predominated, the gap was less significant.
A more detailed analysis reveals specific trends for each subject. For example, the largest gender disparity was observed in English language and literature, where the number of female students was approximately 225, while the male students numbered around 200. Conversely, in Philosophy, males significantly outnumbered females, with a count of about 140 compared to only 40. In subjects like History and Archeology and Art and Design, the difference was less pronounced. In History and Archeology, female students were around 100, while males were around 75. Similarly, in Art and Design, there were approximately 150 female students and 130 male students. The number of male and female students in Communication and Media Studies was quite similar, with around 190 females and 180 males.
