Hi At Lancaster, for our Athena SWAN submissions we tend separate data for each of the role types as follows: * Lecturers * Senior lecturers & Readers * Professors * Research only roles We then aggregate all of the above to give totals for 'all academic roles'. Hope this helps Rob Kemp Manager - Equality & Diversity Human Resources Division, Lancaster University Phone: 01524 510624 http://www.lancs.ac.uk/HR/equality-diversity/ http://www.lancs.ac.uk/sci-tech/athenaswan/ [twoticks_symbol] From: HEEON equal opportunities list [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Lechner, Andrea Sent: 16 July 2013 10:58 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Athena SWAN data Hi We are preparing data for our Athena SWAN action plan and application and in the process of this I have come across a difference of opinion in how we distinguish between academics and researchers. Some of my colleagues would differentiate as follows: * Academic - does teaching, research/scholarly activity/income generation and associated admin (marking, admissions tutor etc.) * Researcher - primarily is engaged to do research (some on fixed-term contracts as their contract is tied to a grant and fixed external income), they may do some teaching though this is rare and incidental Some of my colleagues would view Professors and Reader as Researchers as they mainly do research. Typically our lecturers and senior lecturers teach between 14-18 hours per week and a Professor or Reader would probably teach up to/around 6 hours per week. I should say we are a Million + university and there is the potential that Russell Group institutions may use different criteria. How do you distinguish between academic staff and research staff?
