Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to add to the body of research regarding women in mid-career who work in academia. This chapter, per the authors, seeks to examine women in mid-career academia who may be at a crossroads to explore their roles in life and career goals. As many women faculty members of academic institutions are navigating the stage of mid-career, past research studies are clear that there are key factors to how academics can thrive. These studies explore specific strategies for women in academia to take in order to be successful. The authors delved into hearing their individual stories to hone the essence of the individual female and then corroborate the information.
