On the other hand women still face great difficulties in developing professional careers in equal opportunities to those of men in these sectors, especially regarding their proportion and representation at the higher levels of hierarchical ladder. UNICAFE Project (2006-2008) aimed to conduct a survey with seven partnering universities from six countries, on university career of female scientists at life sciences versus technical universities. Beyond the Glass Ceiling: Women Academics in Engineering-Technology and Life Sciences across Europe Conference aims to present the outcomes of UNICAFE project and to bring together the scholars and researchers from all over the world who are currently working on the current situation and future perspectives of Women Academics in engineering, technology and life sciences.
