Abstract | ABSTRACT: In an era of innovation and digital transformation, women's representation in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) remains a significant issue. Despite increased awareness and regulatory attempts, women's participation in many sectors is nevertheless hampered by deeply ingrained societal norms, gender prejudices, and structural hurdles. This research investigates the changing role of Indian women in STEM, focusing on important difficulties such as patriarchal perceptions of scientific vocations, a lack of mentorship, workplace discrimination, and the absence of a supporting environment. It examines the effectiveness of educational programs, government initiatives, and institutional interventions targeted at increasing inclusion in STEM education and employment. Furthermore, this study highlights the importance of role models, networking opportunities, and skill development in helping women overcome institutional constraints. It also emphasizes the contributions of Indian women in STEM by celebrating their accomplishments in research, entrepreneurship, and technological developments. By reviewing the position of the 21st-century Indian woman, this study hopes to contribute to the continuing discussion about gender equality in science and technology. It encourages for a more inclusive and equitable STEM ecosystem in which women can not only contribute but also lead revolutionary discoveries that affect the future. |
