Committee on the Status of Women In Astronomy

The Committee on the Status of Women in Astronomy (CSWA) was established in 1979 and consists of eight rotating members with 3-year terms. CWSA’s charge is to recommend to the American Astronomical Council practical measures that can be taken to improve the status of women in astronomy and encourage their entry into this field. The CSWA strives to create a climate of equal opportunity in hiring, promotion, salary, and in access to research opportunities and infrastructure at all levels within the field of astronomy ranging from undergraduate and graduate programs and then throughout a career in teaching, research, and/or other astronomy-related fields such as public outreach.
