Its primary purpose is as an information source on the participation of women, minorities, and persons with disabilities in science and engineering. The current report found a number of areas in which progress has been made for women since the 1982 report was published. In education, both the numbers and percentages of women completing high school; enrolling in college; and completing bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees in science and engineering have increased over time. Women are more likely than men to graduate from high school and to enroll in college, and are as likely as men to graduate from college. In 1996, women received close to half (47 percent) of all science and engineering bachelor's degrees awarded, 39 percent of the master's degrees, and 33 percent of the doctorates. Women have accounted for an increasing percentage of the bachelor's degree recipeints in all major science and engineering fields except mathematics and computer science. In science and engineering emplyment, women - especially younger as their primary or secondary owrk activity. Among older age groups, however, women are less likely than men to report management as their primary or secondary work activity.
