6. Chemical Industry Student Numbers: getting there…. 9/6/2012 The proportion of women in chemistry is also increasing…in fact at undergraduate level in 2005, more women graduated than men!
However, postgraduate numbers are lagging behind undergraduate numbers, and indeed comparing postgraduate numbers in 2005 with the undergraduate data of three years earlier shows that a slightly smaller proportion of women go on to postgraduate study then men.The proportion of women in chemistry is also increasing…in fact at undergraduate level in 2005, more women graduated than men!

8. Percentage of female staff by grade 9/6/2012 The proportion of female staff in chemistry (and science) is lower than the average – in fact chemistry has one of the lowest proportions of female professors (Civil Engineering is worse). In fact the difference between the proportion of female professor in all subjects and that in chemistry has increased slightly over the last couple of years.The proportion of female staff in chemistry (and science) is lower than the average – in fact chemistry has one of the lowest proportions of female professors (Civil Engineering is worse).

10. First Degree Graduates: women are more likely to enter scientific employment than men. 44% of employed women and 36% of employed men had entered scientific employment.
PhD Graduates: women are less likely to enter scientific employment than men. 54% of employed women and 58% of employed men had entered scientific employment.
Scientific vs. non-scientific employment 9/6/2012 Just considering a few of Jessica’s preliminary finings;
Amongst first degree chemistry graduates, women were more likely to enter scientific employment than men, but this is reversed for PhD graduates.

11. So overall, women in scientific employment are far less likely than men to possess a PhD (24% women and 45% men in scientific employment have PhDs)
Long term repercussions for career?
Scientific vs. non-scientific employment 9/6/2012 Overall women in scientific employment are less likely than men to possess a PhD, and this may well have long-term repercussions on the likelihood of women to progress up the career ladder.
