Analysing the gendering of this process using various theoretical perspectives, this edited collection examines the active ?making? of careers, and how this has been possible. The editors and contributors cut across institutions, cultures and continents to seek to understand how women navigate the gendered process of becoming a professor, with each chapter applying a different theoretical or methodological approach to her experience. The chapters are not mere descriptions of career trajectories, but analytic narratives anchored within distinct theoretical and philosophical frameworks. In turn, they shed important light on how ? and if ? institutional structures and systems are adapting to move towards gender equality. Offering practical advice as well as thoughtful reflection, this book will be of especial interest to early career female academics. . 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Gender and Education,$x2524-6445 606 $aHigher education 606 $aGender identity in education 606 $aWomen 606 $aCareer education 606 $aHigher Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O36000 606 $aGender and Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O45000 606 $aWomen's Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X35040 606 $aCareer Skills$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O53020 615 0$aHigher education. 615 0$aGender identity in education. 615 0$aWomen. 615 0$aCareer education. 615 14$aHigher Education. 615 24$aGender and Education. 615 24$aWomen's Studies. 615 24$aCareer Skills. 676 $a378 676 $a378.12082 702 $aMurray$b Rowena$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aMifsud$b Denise$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910349333603321 996 $aThe Positioning and Making of Female Professors$92538780 997 $aUNINA
