Abstract | Motivated by the articles on Gender Studies, in particular, Gender differences in Mathematics Learning, a deep search is made. In that context an innovative paper titled GENDER PARITY IN MATHEMATICS EDUCATION IN INDIA published with a peer reviewed journal viz., International Research Journal of Modernization in Engineering Technology and Science is identified and it was authored by Ankur Nandi, Amit Bagdi, Anita Chatterjee, Barsha Ghosh, Supriya Dutta, Soumen Roy, Dr. Tapash Das and Dr. Lutful Haque. This paper is a review article on Gender differences in Mathematics Education in India. This study investigates gender parity in mathematics education at the higher education level (Bachelor of Mathematics, Master of Philosophy in Mathematics, and Doctor of Philosophy in Mathematics) in India. The study employs qualitative methods and documentary analysis. Documentary analysis addresses the goals of the study by reviewing the available reports from the Department of Higher Education, Government of India's All- India Survey on Higher Education. It was found that there was a notable increase in the percentage of female students enrolling in M.Sc. Mathematics programs, with female enrolment surpassing that of male students during this period; the percentage of female students enrolling in the M.Phil. program in Mathematics has been rapidly increasing, the enrolment rate of female students has surpassed that of male students; more male students enrolled in the Mathematics Ph.D. program compared to females, but the percentage of female enrolment steadily rose over the years. In the academic session of 2021-2022, the percentage of female enrolment surpassed male enrolment, with 51% of students being female (Ankur Nandi et al 2024). |
