Abstract

This paper presents the dynamics of gender inequalities at Polish universities in the years 2004–2021. Instead of the usual shares of women among all university graduates and employees, I analyse the degrees and titles awarded in this period. The gender imbalance among university graduates persists, with women obtaining twice as many master's degrees as men. Among the new doctors, a small surplus of women appeared. The shares of women in habilitations and titles of professors substantially increased. The shares of women in engineering and technical sciences increased at all levels. Both among graduates and among scientists, the gender composition tends towards equality where women have been less numerous so far. However, a similar trend has not occurred where men obtained a minority of degrees and titles.

Abstract

The article presents, on the basis of data from the POL-on system and the European Statistical Office, the trajectories of women's scientific careers in technoscience – particularly in engineering and technology. It also describes the results of a qualitative study, which comprises an analysis of twelve biographical interviews with female professors who represent various disciplines of technoscience. The article then outlines possible solutions for increasing the representation of women in technoscience.
