The Erasmus School of Economics (ESE) and the Rotterdam School of Management (RSM) have a long way to go before they reach the diversity targets set for 2020. The university has set itself the target of ensuring that 20 percent of all professors are female. ESE and RSM currently both have only one.<\/p>\n

New figures released by the Executive Board reveal that there are enough eligible women in the \u2018pipeline\u2019. For example, at RSM women occupy one-third of assistant professor positions. When it comes to endowed professors, a position that is often a gateway to an appointment as a full professor, three out of ten are women. There is even more \u2018leakage in the pipeline\u2019 at ESE. There, two out of ten associate professors are women. Likewise, one out of eight endowed professors is female, but there is only one female full professor among 36 male colleagues.<\/p>\n

The ESL and ESHCC faculties, along with the ISS and ESHPM institutes are faring better with the percentage of female professors already topping 20 percent.<\/p>\n
