Engineering professions generally went last decades through process of feminization, but not equally. The article is focused on one of the most male dominant profession - mining, geology and petroleum engineering (MGPE). This study will examine the percentage of female students and graduates from mining college and their achievement on undergraduate level in eleven years period. Data show a significant differences in female students enrollment among geology (35% women) and mining and petroleum engineering (14% women).
