Gender Differences in the Achievements of Architecture, Civil Engineering and Geodesy Students

Abstract

: This paper analyses gender differences of the success candidates who applied for the entrance exam in the Faculty of Architecture, Civil Engineering and Geodesy, University of Banja Luka during 2012, 2013 and 2014. The success of candidates according to gender in relation to the desired study programs was especially observed. The length of study of enrolled candidates who graduated was also analysed in relation to gender and study programs. It was concluded that success in the entrance exam and success in high school are statistically significantly related to success in studies, as well as the length of study. Women in architecture and civil engineering studies are just as successful as men, while in the study of geodesy women are more successful than men. The results of this research are presented using statistical analysis.
