Women in higher education: leadership, coordination, and bibliography.

We analyzed 794 syllabi from the Primary Education Degree within the Spanish University Network using a qualitative-comparative approach, focusing on women’s involvement in the management and coordination of courses and their representation in the associated bibliographic materials. The findings reveal a predominantly androcentric environment, where, despite women’s active participation in course leadership, their contributions to the bibliographic landscape are significantly limited. The research highlights the disparities in gender representation and underscores the necessity for measures to enhance women’s visibility in academic and scientific spaces.eng© 2024 Hurtado-Reina, Meza and VelascoAssignment managementBibliographyFemale presencePrimary educationTeaching guidejournal article2025-03-032504-284X
