The Division of Psychology and Language Sciences (PALS) has been awarded an Athena SWAN silver award three times (2009, 2013, 2017) for its work on advancing the careers of women scientists.
Athena SWAN awards are made to universities or their departments that have shown significant progress in addressing the imbalance in career progressions of women vs men in science, engineering and technology.
Because PALS comprises seven research departments, this represents a significant step towards UCL's goal of achieving an institution-wide silver award.
