Boston University’s bold experiment to reverse the longstanding gender gap in computer and data science is defying national trends, according to a recent feature by the university (Boston University). While women comprise about half the workforce in the United States, they remain woefully underrepresented in the booming fields of technology and data: barely 15-20% of professionals in data science are women, and women-led start-ups and founding teams are even scarcer.
