Much of this congressionally mandated book is based on two unique surveys of faculty and departments at major U.S. research universities in six fields: biology, chemistry, civil engineering, electrical engineering, mathematics, and physics. A departmental survey collected information on departmental policies, recent tenure and promotion cases, and recent hires in almost 500 departments. A faculty survey gathered information from a stratified, random sample of about 1,800 faculty on demographic characteristics, employment experiences, the allocation of institutional resources such as laboratory space, professional activities, and scholarly productivity. This book paints a timely picture of the status of female faculty at top universities, clarifies whether male and female faculty have similar opportunities to advance and succeed in academia, challenges some commonly held views, and poses several questions still in need of answers. This book will be of special interest to university administrators and faculty, graduate students, policy makers, professional and academic societies, federal funding agencies, and others concerned with the vitality of the U.S. research base and economy."--Publisher's description. 606 $aUniversities and colleges$xFaculty$xEmployment$xSex differences$xUnited States$vStatistics 606 $aSex discrimination in employment$zUnited States 606 $aSex discrimination in higher education$zUnited States 606 $aWomen in science$zUnited States 606 $aWomen in technology$zUnited States 606 $aWomen in mathematics$zUnited States 606 $aEducational surveys$zUnited States 615 0$aUniversities and colleges$xFaculty$xEmployment$xSex differences$xUnited States 615 0$aSex discrimination in employment 615 0$aSex discrimination in higher education 615 0$aWomen in science 615 0$aWomen in technology 615 0$aWomen in mathematics 615 0$aEducational surveys 676 $a331.4/133 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bCommittee on Gender Differences in Careers of Science, Engineering, and Mathematics Faculty. 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bCommittee on Women in Science, Engineering, and Medicine. 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bCommittee on National Statistics. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910787156203321 996 $aGender differences at critical transitions in the careers of science, engineering, and mathematics faculty$93791240 997 $aUNINA
