    i suspect women are going for bio degree, they surpass men like 60% in this bio degree holders, specifically health(nursing, maybe some research, or even MD), in an older study, so they have more job security. the stems that men are going for, are usually very difficult to get into, if you dont have lab/research experience before graduation, or not even considering grad school. like psych, CS, data science, physics,etc.

    biotech/health is one of those fields i see alot women in compared to men, when i was in university, most of the labs were taken up by women more than men, and men have struggled to find it by the time thier junior year or by the time they graduate, because labs have very limited volunteering spaces and are almost always full. some of them even got PUBLISHED/ or was in a research paper, which is a very big deal for your CV or resume.
