It’s been a long road, but there’s a continuing upward trend. In 1998, only 6 percent of all full professors were women; today the number is 26 percent, about four times as many.

Although Delft is at the bottom of the rankings, progress can be seen in historical perspective (in Dutch): in ten years' time, the share of female professors has doubled, from 8 percent in 2010 to 16.9 percent in 2020.
