Women in science
Main Article Content
Abstract
In March 2018, more than a century after the first manifestations of gender equality, we observe that the participation of women in science is still limited. Moschkovich and Almeida (2015) analyzed the teaching career data at Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP) and revealed that although competitive admission claims to allow for an egalitarian selection of teachers, women are less likely to occupy higher positions within the university; moreover, while men are found across different areas, women are concentrated in specific areas of the institution and take more time to reach the top.
