Gender bias in education has gained considerable attention in recent years, as it carries profound implications for the academic community. However, while the problem has been tackled from a student perspective, research is still lacking from an academic point of view.
This presentation aims to bridge this research gap by shedding light on the complex dynamics of gender bias within the Software Engineering (SE) community. We first present a literature review on the subject, assessing the current trends in the literature.
We then move on to an in-depth analysis, focusing on two main topics:
Through our findings, we derive insightful conclusions regarding the current state of gender bias within the SE field, highlighting critical areas where further research and intervention are essential.
