The provided bar chart compares the numbers of men and women learners majoring in six distinct information technology disciplines at an American university in 2011.
Overall, the data clearly indicate that male undergraduates were predominant in all courses, except for linguistics and natural sciences. In addition, the most significant difference in the number of male and female was recorded among Mathematics students.
In terms of male-dominated subjects, it is obvious that around 200 male students were enrolled in the Mathematics major, which is almost seven times as many as females students. Similarly, the figure for psychology had the same male enrollers, 25 more than female students with the latter numbering 175, a smaller gender gap compared to Math. Moreover, Engineering and Programming attracted similar number of learners of both genders, standing at 150 males as opposed to about 75 females.
As for the remaining disciplines, linguistics experienced a completely opposite gender pattern, as female enrollments were higher, with approximately 120 females, compared to 60 males. Furthermore, the number of female and male students choosing Natural Sciences was the same at 20, making it the most chosen are of qualifications for both genders.
