Are professors of human nutrition faculty at Canadian universities representative with respect to common social constructs of gender and race?

This study is limited because only individuals with professorial titles were included and the assignment of social constructs for race a nd gender was subjective. Nevertheless, it establishes an understanding of the proportions of professors of human nutrition who are white, racialized, Indigenous, women, and men. Novelty: Canadian universities strive to be equitable, diverse, and inclusive. One hundred and ninety professors of huma n nutrition were stratified using social constructs for race and gender. Findings: 65% Women, 80% white, 16.4% racialized, and 2.6% Indigenous
