How a Top Business School Added More Women to Its Faculty

 

Last month, during a meeting at the White House, the deans of some of the nation’s top business schools committed to making their programs more accessible and appealing to women. They also noted a related challenge: hiring female faculty members. Data from a salary survey by AACSB International, an association of business schools, underscores the gender gap in what has long been a largely male-dominated workplace. In 2014-15, at the 497 American schools that responded, women made up 37.5 percent of assistant professors, roughly 32 percent of associate professors, and slightly more than 20 percent of full professors.
