My field, operations research, had a reasonable number of girls. At least 6 of them that I could remember. Two of them were even ok-looking. Well, they had big knockers anyway. It was a serious trade up from when I was in CS. I don't remember seeing ANY girls in my advanced classes.

When I was at Union College (graduated 1988) we had 5-6 women out of 50 Mech E's. That was a fantasic ratio at the time! EE had almost no women. Civil had a few.
