| Summary: | The paper aims at exploring the ability and performance of female doctoral candidates in Universiti Teknologi Malaysia. Based on relevant information at the entry and exit levels, the paper reveals that women participation is high in Science despite an earlier finding which suggests high participation in Art and Humanities. Regardless of specialization, the paper shows that females whom achieved better results in their undergraduate level are more ready and capable to undertake doctoral degree. Female doctoral candidates also performed better in their thesis examination and form substantial proportion of candidates graduated on time in Universiti Teknologi Malaysia. |
