I have a few daughters looking for science and engineering programs in the next few years. They're all scared to attend schools in states hostile towards women. I get that. I'm looking for recommendations for schools in states positive towards women that have good STEM programs.

Women go to the same universities as men.

This isn't like shampoo, where the women's version is a seperate product.

Take a little time to read the whole question. They're asking about cities/states where their daughters can feel safe & empowered, as well as the fact that there is a good university, that likely shouldn't have a "frat bro" culture.

Aren’t women safe in all states?
It’s a bit hard to fathom as a European, so I’d love some knowledge if you’d share

Think of the US like 50 countries in a trenchcoat, cosplaying as a single country. It's a crap shoot in a lot of ways.
