Prior to that she served as Women’s Studies Director and Professor of Psychology at the University of Missouri-St. Louis. Rose has published extensively on issues related to gender, race, and sexual orientation, including professional networks, career development, leadership, friendship, and personal relationships. She has consulted with many universities both nationally and internationally concerning strategies for recruiting and retaining women faculty in science and engineering.
