dc.description.abstractThis study investigated the Nigerians’ attitude towards women in science and technology based artisan jobs as a factor in mainstreaming girls into science, technology and mathematics education. In carrying out this study, Questionnaire on People Attitudes towards Women in Science and Technology Artisan Jobs (QPATWSTAJ) was developed to collect necessary data. Data collected were analysed using simple percentage, mean, and T-test analytical tools. The results of the study show that people have negative attitude toward women in science and technology based artisan jobs; however, the level of educational attainment and marital status do not influence the society’ attitude towards women in science and technology based artisan jobs but gender has a significant influence. It was recommended among others that government should organise special educational programmes, awareness and sensitization campaigns, seminars and conference at national, state and local government levels aimed at changing the negative attitude of the people towards women in science and technology based artisan jobs so as to achieve the Millennium Development Goalsen_US
