    You could go gay. That would open up a lot of back doors

    Shitty jokes aside. I’m actually surprised the projector says 2020. There were quite a few girls in my class in 2019

      America is a weird place, Europe is more balanced in general. Back in 2000 we had more of a 60%-40% split in computer science.

        I’m guessing this picture wasn’t taken in America, given what looks like Cyrillic text on the projector. Could be wrong, though.

        Nah, it’s definitely a thing in the Netherlands. I got my degree a couple years ago and we only had a few girls.

        It’s super obvious to me as an American that this is somewhere in Europe. If this were in America over half the class would be Asian or Indian.

          I’m from Europe (and studied CS there). My classes for some courses were about a third Indian, a third Chinese, with locals and other foreigners combined being the final third.

          Of course, I’m pretty sure this photo wasn’t taken anywhere near me either. For me, the clue to that was the Cyrillic on the slides.

      I am gay and have a master’s in computer science. Believe me, there wasn’t much for me in class either.

      Tbh I’m not supprised I graduated in 2015 with a networking degree and there were 3 girls in my class group (3 or 4 courses with a lot of the same classes) which was about 150-200 students.

      Conversely the nursing classes that were in the same building those numbers were flipped

            Weird. I thought my school was pretty unique/weird for having comp sci and nursing in the same building.

              The campus has a few buildings. Some specialised some for general lectures and old skool classes.

              We what classes were spread around most of them during the week

        The same happens at my uni but with cs vs mathematics. For some reason these courses have completely flipped demographics.
