Despite a large focus on promoting diversity in the STEM fields, nationally only around 25% of PhD’s in the mathematical sciences are awarded to women. This talk will introduce and review some of the educational research that examines issues of recruitment and retention of women in mathematics. Discussion and reflection on these issues with the audience will be encouraged.
