Objeto de conferencia Congreso de la Mujer Latinoamericana en Computación (LAWCC-CLEI) - JAIIO 46 (Córdoba, 2017). Abstract—In the last years, the field computer science has been of little interest for girls attending the undergraduate courses in Brazil. In the Computer Science Department at the University of Brasília, in the country’s capital, female students compose less than 10% of the student body. To try to understand the girls’ lack of interest in computer related courses, this article analyses data from a poll done with high school girls in Brazil’s Distrito Federal from 2011 to 2014.; Nos últimos anos, as meninas que ingressam no ensino superior no Brasil tem demonstrado pouco interesse pela área de Computação. Especificamente, na capital do Brasil, o índice de alunas que ingressam nos cursos do Departamento de Ciência da Computação da Universidade de Brasília é de menos de 10%. Para tentar entender a falta de motivação das meninas para os cursos de computação, este artigo apresenta um estudo, baseado em análise dos dados, a partir de uma pesquisa realizada entre 2011 e 2014, com alunas do ensino médio do Distrito Federal no Brasil sobre a área de Computação.

Objeto de conferencia Congreso de la Mujer Latinoamericana en Computación (LAWCC-CLEI) - JAIIO 46 (Córdoba, 2017). The evolution in women´s professional career in computing has been studied very little. In a previous study (LAWWCC 2016) we reported results of an exploratory study that aimed to characterize the professional development model of people that studied Computer Sciences in Costa Rica, in terms of roles and industrial sectors with which they began their professional career and in which they report are currently working.. Surprisingly, no important gender differences were depicted amongst men and women. As a result, some valid concerns were raised regarding the question: do the results represent the behavior of women in all professional career stages? As a result, in this study, results are now grouped by generations. The aim of this study is to determine whether there are differences in these variables in the professional career evolution for different generations. Results are obtained from an online survey responded by 166 women professionals in Computer Sciences. Women are grouped in four generational categories: baby boomers, generation X, young and mature millennials. The main finding of this research is that the professional evolution of women, with respect to the role and sector in which they perform, revel different behaviors for women of different generations.

Objeto de conferencia Congreso de la Mujer Latinoamericana en Computación (LAWCC-CLEI) - JAIIO 46 (Córdoba, 2017). La brecha de género entre la participación masculina y femenina en Ciencia, Tecnología, Ingeniería y Matemáticas (en inglés STEM por Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) es lamentablemente universal, y en general inaceptablemente amplia. Además, esta brecha es particularmente notoria en las carreras de Ingeniería Eléctrica y de Ingeniería en Computación (Electrical Engineering & Computer Science, EECS). Distintas organizaciones internacionales y universidades de Norteamérica, Europa y Latinoamérica han diseñado programas para enfrentar este importante problema, los cuales muestran diversos grados de éxito. En muchos de estos programas se encuentra la idea la de trabajar con adolescentes mujeres a nivel de su formación secundaria, buscando acercarles conocimientos clave de las disciplinas de STEM e incentivarlas a elegir carreras del área. Entre otras actividades, estos programas proponen la realización de presentaciones, charlas, o cursos cortos en un período determinado en la propia universidad, dictados por mujeres docentes del área con enfoque de role model. En este artículo se presenta la experiencia efectuada en la Facultad de Ingeniería de la Universidad de la República, Uruguay, con motivo del Día Internacional de las Niñas en las Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación (TICs). En particular se dictaron talleres de robótica, circuitos y creación de mapas, para adolescentes de secundaria como forma de promover las carreras de TICs en Uruguay.

This article presents a study about women’s participation in the computing area, based on Argentinian universities. This was done by analyzing the percentage of women that hold positions of authorities in universities, as well as in the faculty (department or dependency) where computer engineering careers are given. This will allow to see the level of women’s participation in positions where important decisions are made. Moreover, master and doctoral thesis in the computing field are surveyed, being able to analyze the participation of women not only as thesis writers, but also as thesis directors, along the years. The data used to make these statistics was gathered from public information that those institutions have on their websites.; Este artículo presenta un relevamiento sobre la participación de la mujer en el área de informática, basado en las Universidades Argentinas. Analizándose el porcentaje de mujeres en los principales cargos de autoridades en las Universidades, así como en la Facultad (Departamento o Dependencia) donde se dictan carreras de Ingeniería en Informática (o denominaciones afines). Esto permitirá ver el grado de participación de la mujer en estos cargos en donde se toman importantes decisiones. Por otra parte, se relevan las tesis de maestría y doctorado presentadas en el área de Informática, pudiéndose analizar cómo es la participación de las mujeres como tesistas pero también en la dirección y co-dirección de las mismas, a través de los años. Los datos considerados para poder extraer estas estadísticas fueron recolectados de información pública que dichas instituciones ponen a disposición mediante sus páginas web.
