The given bar graph shows data on the number of male and female research students who were studying in six different subjects at a US university in 2011. As is observed from the given data, more male students were doing research in mathematics, programming and engineering subjects while in linguistic subjects, more females were in research related study than their male counterpart.
According to the graph, 200 males were doing their research in Mathematics in 2011 whereas only about 40 female students were in the same faculty. The only subject in which the number of female researchers was higher than the male was Linguistics amounting more than 100 females compared to the around 80 males. More students were doing their research in Phycology and Natural Science than Engineering and Programming. Interestingly the number of students in Natural Science was same for male and female and that was 200. Again, both in Engineering and Programming there were 150 male students compared to the less than 100 female students.
In conclusion, more males were in research studies in Mathematics, Programming, Engineering and Psychology than women in the given US University in 2011 than females. Female research students only superseded males in linguistic research.
