Only 20% of the US tech industry is female. That's...not great. Gender gaps and bias remain concerning issues in tech and other STEM fields. Best Colleges editor Lorraine (a woman in tech herself!) breaks down the problem and offers some tips for women in the field. And it's not like women are the problem here - so Lorraine offers bonus advice for the other ~80%(!) of tech workers (looking at you, cis-men) on how to be a good ally and help combat gender bias in the workplace.
At Best Colleges we offer valuable information and resources for women in tech and STEM careers as well as students considering entering the fields:
