we have already discussed. And most certainly a stigma still embedded in
most organisations as well, be them a part of the BES or most HE
institutions and departments. In these occupations are there as well
problems concerning vertical mobility which we will not develop.
We shall turn now into the core purpose of this paper, which is
twofold:
- Given the obvious mismatch between the high and
increasing scientific performance Portuguese women are
exhibiting and the occupational status and general labour
market conditions most of them actually face, will it be that
undergoing post-graduation studies, to begin with a Master,
would play the role of a compensatory strategy, eventually
the only one able to promote upward mobility or even the
means to apply to a better job, as some previous research
seemed to show us (Chagas Lopes coord. 1999; Chagas
Lopes & Leao Fernandes 2000, 2003);
- In spite of all the observed closing performances and in
some scientific fields even women’ higher achievement, will
MSc. and PhD. be more difficult to obtain and more time
consuming for women than for men?
Besides the above questions, most other issues would deserve a
thorough investigation: gender differences in occupational outcomes and
status after the achievement of a same post-graduation degree, for
instance, would no doubt stand among the most important ones. It will not
be possible nevertheless to consider with enough detail other features than
the two above mentioned.
