Women in Science & Engineering What Do We Know. Where Do We Go Women in Science & Engineering What Do We Know? Where Do We Go? Jane Zimmer Daniels The Henry Luce Foundation

Summary JZD Perspective The Clare Boothe Luce Program What Do We Know (1960’s-present) Future Directions

My Perspective Academic preparation – Sociology, Counseling, Organizational Behavior Director, Women in Engineering Program at Purdue University (20+ years) NSF Program Director (2 years) Program Director for the Henry Luce Foundation (5+ years)

The Clare Boothe Luce Program Established in 1987 by the generous bequest of Clare Boothe Luce “to encourage women to enter, study, and teach” in fields where there have been obstacles to their advancement — the sciences (including mathematics) and engineering. Photograph courtesy of Chas Geer Photography © 1985

The Clare Boothe Luce Program Goals Support women who are studying or teaching in the sciences and engineering Be a catalyst for institutional change so that women can thrive and reach their full potential

The Clare Boothe Luce Program 1468 women recipients - >$106M *Approximately $6.5 M annually – 58% to Designated Institutions and 42% to Invited Institutions

Why Make an Effort It’s the “right” thing to do It’s the “legal” thing to do It helps the U.S. be competitive It improves the professions

What Do We Do Before 1960s – no women, no one cared 1970s and 1980s – few women, find them and fix them 2000 – a few more women, fix the system so women are attracted and retained

BACHELOR'S DEGREES IN SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING BY FIELD AND SEX 1992 to 2001 (U.S. Citizens and Permanent Residents Only) 1 Includes earth, atmospheric, and ocean sciences, as well as physics, astronomy and chemistry. Source: CPST, data derived from NSF, Science and Engineering Degrees: 1992-2001

DOCTORAL SCIENTISTS AND ENGINEERS EMPLOYED IN FOUR-YEAR COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES BY FIELD OF DOCTORATE, ACADEMIC RANK AND SEX, 2001 Source: CPST, data derived from National Science Foundation, 2001 Survey of Doctorate Recipients and Science and Engineering Doctorate Awards, 2001

Institutional Response to Identified Issues for Women Faculty Move Toward Balance – greater flexibility and individual control Widen Paths to Success – self-study & policy review to discover impediments and increase options Examine the Environment – women’s culture vs. traditional scientists’ culture

Curricular (CMU, EPICS) Teaching and Learning Effective Strategies for Student Recruitment and Retention (institution focused) Curricular (CMU, EPICS) Teaching and Learning Context Gendered language Pedagogy (wait time, teams, attention) Policies and Practices (admissions, merit awards, placement) The Culture

Policy: A Continuum Education (K-12) College Admissions-Scholarships Curriculum/Standards – MA/NJ/? Counseling College Admissions-Scholarships Hiring, Promotion, Tenure Babcock & Lashever – Women Don’t Ask Valian – Why So Slow Gender Schema Cumulative Disadvantage Moody – Rising Above Cognitive Errors and Helping Junior Faculty Succeed COACH – WELI

Policy: A Continuum (continued) National Recognition/Awards Administration – composition & knowledge

Issues How do we create institutional change to improve the educational and work experience for women and men from diverse cultures and experiences What legal challenges will there be to proactive support for females and how will we deal with them
