Research Data On Gender Relations In Academia

On this page, you will find search options at GESIS and other data-providing institutions as well as basic information on data archiving.

Numerous studies on gender relations and gender equality policy in academia regularly produce research data that could be useful for a secondary analysis and for other research topics. At present, only a small amount of research data that was explicitly collected on gender relations in academia is archived. Long-term surveys such as graduate studies or social surveys on students are also available to be used in gender-specific studies.
