Description
In my talk I will present an overview of the current situation of women in physics in Finland, both in academia and industry. The number of female undergraduate students has increased during recent years, but otherwise the situation at universities has not changed much. After going through the figures from different universities, I will present my own experiences of when and why I quit academia and how it has been to work in industry. Many of my own observations can be backed up with data from different surveys, I will also present a short summary of these.
