Astrophysics is more balanced than physics, but both areas skew heavily male. I would look for a school like UNC that has a good amount of female faculty to act as mentors/ research advisors/role models

A friend did Aerospace Engineering at NC State. It was 15 years ago so things may have changed, but she was the only woman in a class of 80.
