Visualizing Gender Diversity at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed an interactive data visualization illustrating trends in undergraduate gender diversity at the university on a class-by-class basis. The visualization lists every department, such as anthropology or chemical engineering, and uses color-coded circles to represent each class and its gender breakdown. Users can also compare how gender diversity at MIT has changed from 1996 to 2006, and from 2006 to 2016.
