Number of female senior academic staff
In 2021, NCUE joined the partner schools in the “Gender Mainstreaming Resource Center for Universities/Colleges” project entrusted by the Ministry of Education to National Taiwan University. The institution has since begun to conduct gender statistics analysis within the university and found that the number of female senior academics accounts for 33.75% of the university relative to the total. The external gender expert also recommended that the university conduct gender statistics analysis of the faculty members in each department and examine the gender trends of faculty retirement through a review of the university’s school reports to study the possibility of affirmative action for future teacher recruitment. The total number of female senior academic staff members increased by 9 in 2022 from 189 in 2021, that is, a rise of 4.8%.
