The commitment of Valencian public universities to attract foreign students in their process of internationalisation is succeeding, especially in the case of women, as shown by the latest data updated in SIUVP (Information System of Valencian Public Universities). The most recent figures in the platform, created by the Valencian public universities and the Valencian Institute of Economic Research (IVIE), reveal that the number of foreign women who decide to study in the Valencian public universities is higher than that of men in both master's degrees and undergraduate degrees, and is maintained in figures similar to those of men in the case of doctoral studies.

In the academic year 2017-2018, the number of foreign students enrolled in a master's degree in one of the five Valencian public universities increased by 24.7% compared to the previous academic year, reaching a total of 1,613. In turn, the number of foreign students in this type of degree grew by 17% to 1,124 men. Women now represent 59% of the total number of foreign students studying for a master's degree. In the case of undergraduate students, 3,212 foreign women were registered, 6.4% more than the previous academic year, as compared with 2,028 men from other countries (5.2% more).

The website shows that, in the case of foreign doctoral students, the number of men grows above that of women, 6.5% and 3.6%, respectively. However, in absolute figures, the number of students (1,246) and foreign students (1,214) is very similar, as well as their weight in the total number of doctoral students (26.6% in the case of women and 27.9% in the case of men).
