Abstract
Female education has failed to gain prominence in the educational policies and programmes of the Nigerian government due to poor implementation and inadequate and ineffective strategies for ensuring female opportunity and access to science and technological education, particularly in the tertiary institutions. This article provides data on the rates of female and male enrollment at various levels of education in Nigeria, suggests reasons for the low levels of female enrollment, and proposes strategies to raise the level of female enrollment, particularly in the sciences and in technology programmes at tertiary level.
