My name is Andrew and I am studying a masters in International Events Management (MA) at Manchester Metropolitan University.

There is a big gender disparity on Events Management courses (both undergraduate and postgraduate) with females making up about 70-80% of the students.

For my dissertation I have decided to investigate this disparity. I am currently conducting the literature review and wondered if anyone could point me in the direction of any texts/books/journals/theories on why this may be (or even provide the names of anyone that could help me).

Many thanks

Google would be an excellent spot from which to launch your investigation.

@soundguy5566,
Start with studying our cultural history in regards to gender roles in society.
