Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between gender and achievement in the various subjects of CS. For this reason, the degrees of all graduate students who enrolled from 2002 to 2008 at the Department of CS and Technology, University of Peloponnese, Greece were studied, with a focus on the courses classified into 2 divisions: “Computer Technology and Computer Systems” and “Software Systems”. The analysis of the data shows that: (a) male students have slightly better grades in most of the compulsory courses, (b) in elective courses, overall, there is no clear pattern, (c) some core hardware/ lab-based software courses are not selected by females, and (d) females perform slightly better in those courses which are chosen by the majority of them.
