The work provides a detailed analysis of the higher education landscape for women during this period, highlighting trends in coeducation and the establishment of independent women's colleges. The central focus of the monograph is the significant advancements women have made in accessing higher education, reflecting societal changes andevolving attitudes toward women's roles in education and professional life.
