Self-regulated learning and systemic and innovative thinking are crit-ical for students’ academic success at all levels nowadays, particularly in higher education. This study aimed to analyze self-regulated learning and systemic and innovative thinking among women in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) disciplines at the university level. A quantitative study was performed analyzing data from a non-probabilistic sample of 190 women study-ing careers in the STEM, with ages between 19 and 35 years. The results indi-cated significant differences in self-management, motivation, self-monitoring, and innovative thinking in the different STEM disciplines. Mechanical engineer-ing students exhibited high self-regulated learning and systemic thinking, while chemical and biological engineering students showed strong innovative thinking but lower self-regulation. These findings underscore the need for personalized STEM education programs that address specific strengths and areas for improve-ment. This paper discusses the implications for educational practice and the pro-motion of gender equity in STEM.
