为什么女性比较喜欢攻读商科硕士高于MBA课程和什么是她们的求学目标?

弗吉尼亚州雷斯顿, March 08, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 在全球范围内,申请市场营销、会计学及管理学等众多商学院研究生课程的女性数量超过了男性。但是,美国及全世界攻读工商管理硕士(MBA)课程的女性人数依然偏低。Graduate Management Admission Council(简称“GMAC”)编写的新版白皮书 What Women Want: A Blueprint for Change in Business Education 分析了造成报读MBA课程的男女生人数长期不均等现象的原因。白皮书探讨了女性在商学院课程申请过程中遇到的最大挑战,以及男性和女性攻读商学院研究生学位的动机差异。发布这白皮书是为了庆祝三八国际妇女节和美国的全国妇女历史月(National Women’s History) 。

GMAC总裁兼首席执行官Sangeet Chowfla评价:“虽然获得商学院硕士学位的女性显著增多,但是拥有MBA学位的女性比例却依然低于男性。针对女性申请商科硕士学位日益增长,然而攻读MBA的男女生人数呈不均等的现象,我们对其主要成因进行了广泛的全球细分研究和市场调查,并发现女性申请者将财务问题列为首要因素。”

主要研究成果 白皮书的主要结论依据是2016年GMAC与全球市场调研公司IPSOS 合作开展的 Global Graduate Management Education Candidate Segmentation Study(全球管理学硕士教育申请者细分研究 )。调研样本是来自全球15个国家的5,900位女性及男性申请者。

世界各地商科课程申请动机与申请途径的差异

西方国家的女性申请课程的动机与途径与中国、印度等新兴经济体的女性明显不一样,以及西方国家的女性与男性的基本申请动机存在显著差异。印度和中国女性申请课程的动机及方式则与西方国家的男性申请者比较相近。

女性会提前做好规划且更重视结果

考虑申请商科管理硕士学位的女学生人数超过男性。整体而言,女性攻读商科研究生课程的目的较为务实且以结果为导向。她们比男性更倾向于申请课程设置灵活、就业前景更好的学校。西方国家的女性尤其如此,她们较男性更倾向为了升职更快和赚钱更多而申请课程。

费用是一大障碍

全球29%的女性受访者将财务状况列为自己未接受商学院研究生录取通知书的主要原因。她们首要考虑的是如何获得奖学金和助学金。然而男性受访者(33%)却认为,还没接受录取通知书是因为他们心仪其他的学院。

在此问题上性别分歧最大的是美国的受访者。三分之一(38%)以上的女性受访者把尚未接受录取通知的原因归结为财务问题,而选择该原因的男性受访者仅有20%。但是,印度和中国的男性受访者(印度14%,中国11%)比女性受访者(印度8%,中国9%)更看重学费问题。

女性获非 MBA 商科学位较多,但也很重视 MBA 课程

有52%的女性已在市场营销、会计学及管理学等研究生课程中与男性平分秋色,而且近年来女性攻读这类课程的数量呈高速增长。不过,报读MBA课程的女性比例却依然未过半,仅占37%。虽然她们没有选择MBA课程,而是更青睐非MBA的研究生课程,但数据显示,女性比男性更加看重MBA学位,将其视为晋升更高级职位的通行证。

Chowfla提到:“人们会轻易地用‘一刀切’的方式来看待女性申请者的问题,将MBA课程中男女学生人数不等归咎于商学院。而白皮书明确阐述的观点是,在申请商科学位时,女性的目标与男性有区别,她们的行为也因应不同国家和行为类型而有所差异。我们认为商学院在提高包容性、改善招生和录取流程及确保设计多元化课程方面已经迈进一大步。我们希望商学院能够借鉴这份白皮书的数据和见解,为提高商科管理女学生的数量和在其他研究生专业中实践性别平等而采取更具胆识的策略。”
