(ALL HUNGARY) 4 July 2007:

One of the things we’ve seen in the US in recent decades is that the traditional ratios of men and women going to college have reversed: somewhere between one half and two thirds of new students are female.

But this is not something restricted to the US: it’s well known in the UK as well and now we have the news that it is happening in Hungary. Perhaps more of a global than local matter.

Things aren’t changing all that much though: in all three countries very few men train for such jobs as kindergarten teacher, while very few women did so in electrical or electronic engineering.
