Inhalt: Several federal agencies asked the National Research Council to document the participation of women engineers in academic institutions within the United States by creating a directory that can be used to announce programs and other formal communications. In response, the NRC compiled a list of approximately 1,300 women faculty in engineering departments in the United States and conducted a survey to gather additional information about their status and careers. This resulting databook provides information on the race/ethnicity, degrees held, employment history, primary work activities, and tenure status of the nearly 800 women faculty members who completed the survey. In addition, it summarizes their responses to questions about experiences with mentoring, factors contributing to career decisions, and satisfaction with current employment.

Harding, Jan; Apea, Emmanuel
Quelle: Commonwealth Secretariat; London, 1990. 142 S.
Inhalt: "This resource book profiles over 40 African female scientists and technologists. The women are presented as role models for young women to help challenge the gender biases that prevent girls and women from entering scientific fields. The profiles of the women employed in scientific and technological fields include photographs and excerpts from interviews. The book also presents current data on the number of women in scientific and technological fields, suggestions for raising those numbers, and a review of career opportunities in science and technology. A list of references and three appendices also are included: (1) Women in education, training and employment: selected African countries; (2) Entry requirements for professional training and education; and (3) Sources of information."
