The number of women in physics in Zimbabwe remains very low relative to men. The few women who graduate with BSc degrees in physics change professions or fields of study owing to the country’s economic hardships. This paper provides enrollment statistics of undergraduate physics students at five institutions in the country. Some institutions have kept track of their alumni, including a female physicist working as physics lecturer in Zimbabwe and female physicists working in geophysics and medical physics.en© 2023 Author(s).
