This shows the proportion of bachelors, masters, and doctoral degrees in computer science (and related fields) awarded to women each year between 1971 and 2011. It illustrates that women represented more than 50% of undergraduate CS degrees awarded from 1982 through 1987,but declined to ~40% until 2003, when the percentage of degrees began to drop again, reaching ~20% in 2007. At the same time, there has been a steady rise in the portion of doctoral degrees award to women, starting at less than 5% in 1971, and rising steadily to reach almost 30% in 2008. The trend in Masters degrees appeasr to be a middle path, showing a general trend upward, with peaks 1985 (40%) and 2000 (50%), with valleys in 1995 and 2006 that correspond to the decrease in undergraduate degrees awarded.
The data comes from National Center for Education Statistics - Table 349. The table shows the number of bachelors, masters, amd doctoral degrees awarde to men and women.
