Mobility of Knowledge
The “Mobility of Knowledge” is an annual survey conducted by Area Science Park since 2005 that collects primary data on students, researchers and teaching staff at the partner research institutions in the SiS FVG network. The survey gathers data on the number of foreign researchers and students at partner research institutions, universities and conservatories, on incoming and outgoing mobility flows, gender differences, research interests and countries of origin.

The dashboard monitors and allows you to quickly and interactively explore the main trends and statistics on tertiary education of the Universities and Conservatories of SiS FVG.
The data are updated in real time with the higher education data portal of the Ministry of University and Research.
Reports on business and territory
The “Young Women and STEM Subjects” survey was conducted by the University of Udine, specifically by Alessio Fornasin and Laura Pagani, with the support of the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region. It is a report on high school students, university students, and graduates in STEM disciplines in the region. The data were collected through questionnaires between November and December 2023.
The results of the project were presented during the event “Women Who Make Science,” held in February at the University of Udine. The event saw the participation of, among others, scientist Antonella Viola, Rector Roberto Pinton, and the university’s Equal Opportunities Delegate, Laura Casella.
Goal: reducing gender disparity in access to university in STEM subjects.
STEM Orientation
In particular, with the projects “STEM for All,” “Engineering and Architecture in Pink,” and “Financial Education,” three initiatives coordinated by Antonina Dattolo, Antonella Meneghetti, Christina Conti, and Enrica Bolognesi. The first is aimed at female students in the last two years of high school across the region to bring them closer to scientific subjects and, above all, to programming and computational thinking. The second, also dedicated to female students in the final two years of high school, aims to deepen knowledge in engineering and architecture. But not only that, the project also explores potential future career paths through guided visits to some of the region’s main companies. The third project focuses on financial literacy for female students.
The Survey on Young Women and STEM Subjects
The research primarily focused on the inclination of female high school students to pursue studies in STEM fields and the factors that may influence their choices. It also looked into the reasons why female university students decided to enroll in STEM subjects. Lastly, the survey explored the experiences of STEM graduates concerning the influence they may have had on younger students.
The Situation and Participation
In 2023, students at the two regional universities (Udine and Trieste) were 23.7% enrolled in scientific degree courses compared to 76.3% enrolled in non-STEM courses. The survey is based on responses to questionnaires sent to students in the fourth and fifth years of all types of regional schools (lyceums, technical institutes, vocational institutes) and to all enrolled students at the two universities. In high schools, 1570 students responded, 783 males and 787 females. At the universities, 2442 students responded, 815 males, of which 430 were in STEM, and 1627 females, of which 316 were in STEM. In total, 746 respondents out of 2442 were enrolled in STEM degrees. Among the graduates who responded to the questionnaire, there were 385 participants, 172 males and 213 females, with 242 graduates in STEM, divided between 116 males and 126 females.
