Abstract

This study explores the financial literacy of academic women through a survey conducted with 20 women across various academic disciplines. Financial literacy is essential for managing personal and professional finances, yet academic women face unique barriers that can limit their financial knowledge. The study assesses the participants' understanding of key financial concepts, their financial behaviors, and the challenges they encounter. Data analysis reveals important patterns in the financial literacy of academic women, highlighting areas for improvement and offering strategies to enhance financial empowerment. The results suggest the need for better access to financial education and support to empower academic women.
