Research is at the core of the Flora Stone Mather Center for Women's mission. The Mather Center conducts original research on gender equity in education; hosts a journal for women's and gender equity centers; produces evaluation research on our programs that we disseminate through research briefs; conducts a bi-annual gender equity report at the University; and supports faculty, staff, and student research related to gender equity through research grants.

Explore our research and resources here on how the Mather Center is advancing research on gender equity.
