Abstract:

Women have been involved in the field of transportation since the 1800s and comprise almost half of today‟s workforce, yet the transportation industry continues to be male-dominated. The Transportation Research Board in its 2000 Task Force on Women‟s Issues in Transportation identified a need to learn more about women leaders in transportation. Such knowledge would help the transportation industry in the pursuit and hiring of women and also assist those wishing to pursue a career in transportation. This study provides information on the demographics, career paths, and professional challenges of women managers in major university transportation departments.
