Abstract

With this study we tried to investigate if male and female students have a\ndifferent perception of scientific careers. At the end, we would like to be\nable to provide hints on how to intervene to correct the path that seems to\nnaturally bring male students towards STEM disciplines (science, technology,\nengineering, and math) and reject female students from them.\n
