Abstract

Department of Engineering in universities generally make me as an icon, so that such a major is predominantly filled by male students. However, nowadays women also contribute a lot in choosing this department as a choice of purpose in life. Thus, the stereotype about this department still needs to be questioned since this becomes a problem for women who enter the world of engineering. This study used a quantitative comparison approach using t-test as its data analysis. The research used questionnaires with likert scale consisting of 29 questions. The results showed that there is a negative comparison of academic results of the Department of Engineering between male and female students; women are still under men in the achievement of academic results in the Department of Technical college, because the patriarchal culture inherent in this department is still embedded so that women do not really participate in learning in this department. It is also supported by the treatment of lecturers who tend to give full trust to men rather than women.
