Abstract

Efforts over the past several decades toward increasing the number of women entering science and engineering fields have largely been successful, with undergraduate and graduate school enrollments averaging between 30 and 50 percent women (see Nelson Diversity Survey, http://cheminfo.chem.ou.edu/faculty/djn/diversity/top50.html). Ph.D. attainments show similar progress. However, the percentage of women occupying tenure‐track positions has not risen commensurably. Across the board, women in science and engineering fill on average only 15 to 25 percent of academic positions.
