AGI REPORTS ON FEMALE PARTICIPATION IN THE ACADEMIC GEOSCIENCE COMMUNITY

For Immediate Release
Contact: Cindy Martinez cmm en agiweb.org

Alexandria, VA ? The American Geological Institute (AGI) Workforce Program has released the current data on the percentage of female graduates and faculty members in the geosciences in the latest issue of Geoscience Currents.

The geosciences have a lower percentage of female faculty members than the other sciences.  This comes as the number of women obtaining geosciences degrees has increased steadily for several decades.  The overall percentage of geosciences degrees granted to females stands at 45%. 

In stark comparison to the number of degrees granted, women make up 14.2% of geosciences tenure track positions while females account for 28% of the tenure-track positions in all sciences.
