Research universities work to increase faculty flexibility.
Female professors are rare at research universities. Although women earn more than half the PhDs awarded in the United States to U.S. citizens, they leak from the pipeline at every stage. More women and people of color are getting doctorates, but they're not as successful at getting tenure, partly because the tenure system is so rigid.
Advancing workplace flexibility in all sectors is a goal of the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. Noting how many PhDs choose to work in industry over academic jobs, in 2003 Sloan began a grant to the American Council on Education (ACE) for the project Creating Options: Models for Flexible Faculty Career Pathways.
