Abstract

Despite gains in academic participation, women still face gender disparity in salary among Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) fields. Although this finding is prevalent across the literature, most studies have been conducted within a single institution or field. Here, we determine the extent to which gender inequality in salaries exists across STEM faculty of a regental state system in the Midwestern United States. Salaries of STEM faculty across nine years were collected from the six state institutions within that regental system. Controlling for rank, year, and length of service, female STEM faculty earned significantly less than their male counterparts and these disparities were evident even within the first year of service. As percentage-based increases in salary will not remove the existing gender-based inequity among salaries, other system-wide policies are likely needed to address current levels of gender inequity.
高等教育系统中的工资:职业发展和性别公平的全系统视角
尽管女性在学术参与度方面有所提高,但在科学、技术、工程和数学(STEM)领域,女性仍然面临着薪酬方面的性别差异。尽管这一发现在文献中很普遍,但大多数研究都是在一个机构或领域内进行的。在这里,我们确定了在美国中西部一个摄政州系统的STEM教师中存在工资性别不平等的程度。STEM教师9年的工资从该摄政系统内的6个州立机构收取。在控制了级别、年份和服务年限后,女性STEM教师的收入明显低于男性同行,这些差异甚至在服务的第一年就很明显。由于按百分比增加薪金并不能消除薪金之间现有的基于性别的不平等,因此可能需要其他全系统政策来解决目前的性别不平等程度。
