Education is one of the most important (if not the single most important) pillars of gender equality. For decades, feminism has been advocating for women to be able to access the same benefits as men when it comes to academic opportunities, which often translates to the right to a higher level of education as the one offered in universities.
To this day, there is a vast amount of male-dominated fields, such as engineering, physics and computer science; however, though unfortunate, this does not have to do with the chances available for both genders. In other areas like psychology, for instance, women are actually the predominating sex, and language subjects have almost an even number of both male and female students, numbers which vary by country and even city. This is mainly due to the disparities between interests and life goals, thus the reason why different universities will have unequal amounts of women and men depending on the course.
It is true that all educational institutions must aim to have equal numbers of both genders in every subject, and should encourage the presence of women in areas where they are lacking in, as well as men in female-dominated fields. Nevertheless, universities should rather focus on admitting those passionate and genuinely interested in the degree they are applying to, and on their respective qualifications, never denying someone based on their gender. Therefore, I believe that universities should accept equal numbers of male and female students in every subject to a certain extent.
