Continuing to challenge American colleges and universities is the
underrepresentation of women faculty in Science, Technology,
Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) fields, particularly Latinas
and other underrepresented women of colour. Advancing Women in
Academic STEM Fields through Dual Career Policies and Practices,
comprised of scholarly essays, case studies, and interviews, argues
that to address equity issues related to women faculty, academic
institutions should consider work-life perspectives, including dual
careers, when designing faculty recruitment, retention, and
advancement strategies. By connecting the topic of dual career
hiring to gender and ethnicity, the volume extends the current
research on work-life integration by sharing best practices and
approaches that have worked among institutions of higher education
while incorporating issues related to intersectionality.
