Project no. 30795 · Status: Kapanmış · 2023
Summary
<p>Turkey stands out as a country with the highest percentage of women among academics, reaching 45%. This high representation, however, is not evenly distributed across departments, universities, and cities, and is not observed in administrative positions. This study focuses on the distribution of female academics in terms of city, department, university, and positions, using institutional data from universities, the Student Selection and Placement Center (ÖSYM), and the Council of Higher Education (YÖK).
