Comp Sci even worse than Philosophy!

February 4, 2011

At least when it comes to graduating woman with PhDs.

Discouraging overall. Need to get off my butt wrt all those recruitment and sustaining projects…

(H/T to Feminist Philosophers.)

(And, happy me, of my 7 current PhD students (mostly co-supervised with Uli, of course), 4 are women, with even more DL Lunch regulars. It’s a comfortable balance.)

    Of course, given that (in the US), women PhD graduates edged out men overall is interesting and a good sign. I’d like that the distribution in the graph reflects relatively benign inertia rather than still-persistent barriers…but I’m not sanguine about it.
