The phenomenon of gender issue in higher education is not new. It
prevailed around the globe in different forms however, it theses,
anti-theses and syntheses are vary from culture to culture and
society to society. This study explores gender marginalization in
global perspectives to understand gender nuisance in the developed
and under-developed world. The aim is not a comparative analysis
because higher education is defined differently, and academic
degrees and even academic fields are not uniformly structured
around the world. Here, I focused more on gender and higher
education theses in the UK and US contexts that are suitable to help
and extend my anti-theses and syntheses about gender concern in
Pakistan. Furthermore, those theses of the developed world are welldocumented to assist us in synthesising gender-role in underdeveloped countries. Therefore, my methodology was based on
contents and themes analysis with descriptive and analytical
approach. This study concluded women marginalisation and
discouragement in mixed-educational and workplace environments.
Women own attitude are questioned and made responsible for
gender under representation in higher education. However,
communal and culture barriers of Pakistani society are more
dominated then women’s own approach and mind-set.
