The result of an international academic collaboration, led by researchers at Bath, hopes to spark a deeper conversation about access and equality in science. A new international project, co-led by researchers from the University of Bath's Department of Education and Faculty of Science, hopes to break down some of the barriers which exist when it comes to academic career progression for underrepresented groups. Co-led by Professor Andrea Abbas (Department of Education) with Professor Momna Hejmadi (Associate Dean, Faculty of Science), the project is the result of an international collaboration involving University of Bath Global Chair, Professor Penny Jane Burke. It is announced today to coincide with International Women's Day (Wednesday 8th March). Prof Burke - who is Global Innovation Chair of Equity and Director of the Centre for Excellence in Equity in HE (CEEHE) at the University of Newcastle, Australia - has been Global Chair at the University of Bath since 2020.
