Abstract

Faculty Fates Academic careers in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) include challenges that may differ depending on gender. Kaminski and Geisler (p. 864 ) analyzed the retention rates for tenure-track faculty at 14 U.S. universities in various disciplines. College catalogs, departmental Web sites, and other public sources of information were used to follow the academic careers of nearly 3000 STEM faculty. Except in mathematics faculties—where women left a couple of years earlier than men—generally, women and men were retained and promoted at the same rate.
