A little googling led me to this article about a study which looked at the same:

And what I thought would be of interest to us here:
In an indication of greater, though still low, interest in the field of engineering, alumnae of single-sex independent schools are three times more likely than those from coeducational independent schools to report that they intend to pursue a career in engineering (4.4 percent vs. 1.4 percent).
