A Non-typical Academic Career

Maria Lourdes Machado-Taylor

Chapter 5 in Generation and Gender in Academia, 2013, pp 83-102 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The chapter outlines a non-typical career in higher education as I moved through male-dominated senior management positions and — more recently — as an academic researcher. It analyses both the overt and the covert discrimination I faced and describes the battles and resulting challenges, as well as the strategies developed.
