Male, and by quite a margin often.
In Warwick where I am it is something like 18% female

Because even mathematicians have a sex drive.


It's hard to get your head around, but even that hardcore nerdy mathematician wants some..

Gotta love that justification.

That presupposes mathematicians are only interested in other mathematicians though....it is entirely possible to speak to socialise with and sleep with people who aren't on your course?

So you just want to know what to expect? I think the gender mix at Open Days in Maths Departments is pretty similar to that on the course - and definitely predominantly male.

If you have any other questions about studying Maths let me know :smile: I studied Maths
At my uni (Newcastle), it's like 50/50. So not all unis are male-dominated. :smile:

At Heriot Watt, maths is one of the more balanced subjects in terms of gender. Most year groups are between 50/50 and 60/40 (towards the male side) I'd say.
