What is NSERCs policy on women in science and engineering?
NSERC believes that women should have every opportunity to participate fully in science and engineering and strongly encourages women to consider entering careers in these fields. The Council’s programs and peer review system are designed and operated to ensure fair treatment of all applicants regardless of gender. NSERC recognizes that barriers still exist to the full participation of women in science and engineering careers. It is committed to identifying and working to eliminate any barriers that may exist within its own programs and processes and encourages others to do the same. In addition, NSERC endorses the use of special initiatives, when appropriate, to encourage and assist women in reaching full participation in all disciplines.
