Abstract
This quantitative research primarily seeks to identify the challenges women in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) face while pursuing courses in such fields. It explores proposed solutions to facilitate increased access to higher education for women while ensuring that they are empowered and have the options available to be able to decide on having fulfilling careers without having to sacrifice motherhood, if they decide to have children.
