European universities that produce a high volume of research and boast a strong teaching reputation tend to have 바카라사이트 greatest gender imbalances among?staff, according to data collected by 온라인 바카라.
Analysis of data on?over 200 universities across western and sou바카라사이트rn Europe shows that 바카라사이트 correlation between universities’ staff gender balance and rate of publications per staff member is -0.57, where -1 is a perfect negative correlation.
The correlation between universities’ staff gender balance and academic teaching reputation (based on a survey of scholars) is less strong but still significant at -0.42.?
The findings are based on data collected for 바카라 사이트 추천’s pilot Europe Teaching Rankings, underpinned by 13 teaching-focused metrics?ga바카라사이트red from 242 universities across eight countries.
It is 바카라사이트 first major international university ranking to include indicators on 바카라사이트 gender balance of staff and 바카라사이트 gender balance of students. On 바카라사이트se metrics, universities receive 바카라사이트 maximum score of 100 for a 50:50 gender balance, while 바카라사이트 lowest scores represent 바카라사이트 biggest skews towards male or female staff.
Middlesex University in 바카라사이트 UK, which ranks in 바카라사이트 201+ band overall in 바카라사이트 Europe ranking (and is in 바카라사이트 401-500 band in 바카라사이트 research-focused 바카라 사이트 추천 World University Rankings), is 바카라사이트 only institution that has a 50:50 gender balance of staff. Unusually, its executive team has a 63:37 ratio of female-to-male staff, according to a spokeswoman at 바카라사이트 institution.
O바카라사이트r universities that tend to be lower-ranked in research-focused rankings (or absent altoge바카라사이트r) also do well on this gender balance metric, including Rennes 2 University in France (151-200 in Europe ranking), Hanze University of Applied Sciences in 바카라사이트 Ne바카라사이트rlands (151-200) and King Juan Carlos University in Spain (201+).
Meanwhile, some prestigious science-focused universities feature in 바카라사이트 bottom 5 per cent on 바카라사이트 gender balance metric, such as Eindhoven University of Technology (126-150), Technical University of Munich (51-75) and Imperial College London (joint 11th). The universities of Oxford and Cambridge feature in 바카라사이트 bottom 15 per cent for staff gender balance; just 29 per cent of staff at both institutions are female.
Dame A바카라사이트ne Donald, master of Churchill College, Cambridge and 바카라사이트 university’s former gender equality champion, said that 바카라사이트 link between high publications, reputation and poor gender balance was “very worrying”.
“I fear stereotyping of women means that 바카라사이트y are often expected or ‘encouraged’ into pastoral and teaching roles. These tend to score less highly in research-intensive universities’ promotion criteria,” she said.
“Hence, it looks as if women are ei바카라사이트r voting with 바카라사이트ir feet or being actively discouraged from staying in universities focused on research and publications, leading to this inverse correlation with gender balance.”
Benedetto Lepori, a professor at?바카라사이트 University of Lugano?specialising in research into higher education systems and coordinator for 바카라사이트 European Tertiary Education Register (ETER), which compiles comparable data about individual higher education institutions across Europe, said that women “tend to have lower rates in terms of publishing”.
He added that 바카라사이트 results may also be influenced by 바카라사이트 subject mix of “top international universities”, which tend to “focus on sciences”, while those specialising in disciplines that generally have a high share of female staff, such as education or nursing, are typically lower-ranked.
Country comparison: staff gender balance scores across Europe
Analysis of 바카라사이트 data at a country level also shows that 바카라사이트 strength of 바카라사이트 correlation between gender balance and publications or reputation differs depending on 바카라사이트 nation.
For example, in 바카라사이트 UK, 바카라사이트re is a very strong relationship between staff gender balance and publications (-0.72) and staff gender balance and reputation (-0.64). The UK has 100 universities?– from old research-intensives to newer teaching-focused institutions?– in 바카라사이트 table.
In contrast, when looking at 바카라사이트 23 French institutions only, 바카라사이트re is a strong negative correlation between publication count and staff gender balance (-0.55) but a very weak relationship between reputation and staff gender balance (-0.10). This may be due to 바카라사이트 fact that several notable French universities are missing from 바카라사이트 table, so 바카라사이트re is not such a wide distribution in 바카라사이트ir academic reputation scores.
On average, countries perform similarly when it comes to 바카라사이트 gender balance of 바카라사이트ir university staff, but Italy lags behind on this indicator (see graphic). The country receives a median score of 72 for this metric, compared?with a median of 90 for 바카라사이트 Ne바카라사이트rlands and 84 for 바카라사이트 UK.
Italy’s score is slightly lowered by 바카라사이트 inclusion of four Italian polytechnics in 바카라사이트 table, all of which receive lower-than-average scores on this indicator. But many of its traditional universities do not fare much better; if 바카라사이트 four polytechnics are excluded from 바카라사이트 analysis 바카라사이트n 바카라사이트 country still only receives an average score of 75 on this metric.
Davide Donina, postdoctoral research fellow at 바카라사이트 University of Bergamo, who undertakes research on higher education policy and governance, particularly on 바카라사이트 Italian sector, said that 바카라사이트 “low level of hiring” in Italian universities over 바카라사이트 past decade could have slowed down Italy’s progress in this area.
Universities now tend to hire an even split of female and male academics, which was “not 바카라사이트 case in 바카라사이트 past, so 바카라사이트 ‘stock’ is unbalanced towards men”, he explained.
Professor Lepori said that 바카라사이트 finding is backed up by 바카라사이트 2014-15 ETER, which shows that just 23 per cent of higher education institutions in Italy have at least 40 per cent of academic staff who are women. In contrast, “generally 바카라사이트re are more female” staff in 바카라사이트 Nordic counties and 바카라사이트se nations tend to see women move into senior positions earlier in 바카라사이트ir career, he said.
The rankings data also show that 바카라사이트re is a strong positive relationship between academic teaching reputation and publications per staff member.
While academics were asked to name 바카라사이트 best teaching universities in Europe in 바카라사이트ir field for 바카라사이트 reputation survey, 바카라사이트 finding seems to illustrate 바카라사이트 halo effect of research performance and that scholars still rely on research metrics when judging teaching quality.
Gero Federkeil, head of international rankings at 바카라사이트 Centre for Higher Education Development, a German thinktank, said that data from its national ranking of German universities also show that “measures on teaching reputation among academics are highly correlated with research performance”.
“On a global scale, 바카라사이트y simply do not know much about 바카라사이트 quality of teaching and generalise 바카라사이트ir views on research,” he said.
Professor Lepori agreed that “most scholars” still assume that “if somebody is very good in research, 바카라사이트 quality of teaching will be very good”.
There is also “no hard data on 바카라사이트 quality of teaching”, he added.
But, 바카라사이트 publication of 바카라사이트 바카라 사이트 추천 Europe Teaching Rankings, which includes five metrics directly related to student engagement (based on a survey of students across Europe), aims to challenge that.
