Abstract
This chapter addresses one of the biggest educational challenges of our time: inequalities in access to education. Today, students have difficulty accessing quality education for social, cultural, or political reasons. However, perhaps the saddest of these reasons is the inability to access education because of gender. Unfortunately, in some countries, girls' right to education is denied or restricted. In this regard, the socio-cultural structure of the country is effective, as well as the perspective of the sector in which education is sought for female students. In this chapter, the subject will be discussed in terms of maritime education, where female students face problems more or less all over the world. The difficulties experienced by female students in maritime universities first and in their work later will be discussed, and solutions will be suggested.
