Staff

Gender

We can proudly say that our Rector, 3 out of 4 Directors of Studies, 1 out of 2 Programme Directors, and 2 out of 3 Permanent Professors is female.

In general, the College also has a majority of women among its permanent staff members (62% women vs. 38% men), including 55% of our current administrative leadership.

In contrast, the vast majority of the College's visiting professors is still male (69% vs 31% female).

All study departments keep track of their gender balance through detailed Gender Scoreboards, to monitor progress on this front.
