We know that women students and staff remain underrepresented in Higher Education STEM disciplines. Even in subjects where equivalent numbers of men and women participate, however, many women are still disadvantaged by everyday sexism.

The main perpetrators of this sexism were not university staff, however, but were men STEM degree students.
