- Among STEM majors, physics, engineering, and computer science (PECS) consistently have the largest gender imbalances among U.S. college students, with about 4 men to every 1 woman.
NYU researchers found that men with very low high-school GPAs in math and science choose math intensive majors just as often as women with much higher math and science achievement.
"This new evidence combined with emerging literature on the male-favoring cultures in PECS, suggest that efforts to dismantle barriers to women in these fields would raise the overall quality of students,” says Joseph Cimpian, Associate Professor of Economics and Education Policy at NYU Steinhardt.

“Warm waters in this part of the world, as remote as they may seem, should serve as a warning to all of us about the potential dire changes to the planet brought about by climate change,” explains David Holland, director of New York University’s Environmental Fluid Dynamics Laboratory and NYU Abu Dhabi’s Center for Global Sea Level Change, which conducted the research. “If these waters are causing glacier melt in Antarctica, resulting changes in sea level would be felt in more inhabited parts of the world.”

- Description
- The Attainment, Fulfillment, and Resilience in Sports and Society series focused on how superstar culture in the U.S. seduces and fails young people from challenged backgrounds and struggling communities, while diverting attention and urgency from systemic obstacles and problems. Defining success in terms of a few superstar examples of success – be it in sports or in academic attainment - covers up deep-rooted problems in these settings and promotes an all or nothing, high risk attitude toward life choices.
The conversation focused on policy and societal themes implicit in two forthcoming productions: Shakespeare Theater Company’s production of Everybody by MacArthur Fellow Branden Jacobs-Jenkins and Ford’s Theatre production of August Wilson’s Fences. The conversation addressed how society privileges superstar attainment over self-actualization and how that ethic hinders efforts to create a more equitable and more fulfilled nation.
