Athena Swan
The Athena SWAN Charter is a scheme which recognises excellence in Science, Engineering
and Technology (SET) employment for women in higher education and research. Any
university or research institution which is committed to the
advancement and promotion of the careers of women in SET in higher education and research can apply for
membership. Over twenty five per cent of all eligible universities are now members.
