Abstract: Internships serve as pivotal experiences in shaping individuals’ professional trajectories, bridging academic knowledge with real-world application. Amidst growing emphasis on diversity and inclusion, understanding gender dynamics in internship programs becomes imperative. This study investigates gender-based quantitative disparities in intern performance evaluation, focusing on the summers of 2022 and 2023. Drawing on demographic data and performance ratings across personal attitudes, work-related skills, and human relations, a comprehensive analysis reveals nuanced gender differences. While males dominate program participation, females exhibit higher representation in top performance categories for personal attitudes and work-related skills. Conversely, males excel in human relations skills. Recommendations include enhancing gender inclusivity in recruitment and program design, tailoring support initiatives, and fostering gender-equitable environments. Findings offer insights for optimizing internship programs, promoting diversity, and advancing gender equality in professional spheres.
