Total Women Medical School Faculty by Select Race/Ethnicity, 2019-2020

As we saw in the 2019-2020 State of Women in Academic Medicine Report, women are underrepresented at various levels of medical school faculty. The proportion of women from an underrepresented-in-medicine race or ethnicity group was 12% in 2009 and 13% in 2018. The percentages are for full-time women faculty (part-time, volunteer, and emeritus appointments are not counted).

Note: To allow for unduplicated counts of faculty, the “Multiple Race – Hispanic” break-out includes all faculty who are reported as Hispanic and at least one other race. The “Multiple Race – Non-Hispanic” break-out includes all faculty who are reported as more than one race, but who are not reported as Hispanic.
