Summary/Abstract: Women have undertaken various roles and responsibilities in society from past to present. While these roles, which change and diversify under the influence of traditions, cultural norms, economic structure and social environment, sometimes bring to the fore areas of action where women are more active, they sometimes bring about discrimination and inequality of opportunities against women, and therefore their separation from action areas. This understanding, in which men and women are evaluated separately, has brought about a significant separation, especially in professional acquisition and business life, and certain sectors have been socially accepted as areas where women cannot take on a role. In this context, the construction sector, which is generally accepted as a business line in which men predominantly work, was evaluated within the scope of the study.Engineering and architectural services, which stand out as professions that require qualified education within the construction sector, were examined within the scope of the study in the context of women’s duties as a business line, their opportunities to use their potential and the difficulties they experience in the sector. In this context, the difficulties experienced by women who work within the architectural professional organization in office work and also in construction site / field work, both during their education periods and in business life, have been analyzed analytically within the scope of statistical data based on survey studies, as well as theoretical and conceptual evaluations in the context of gender equality / inequality.
