This chapter explores the gendered effects and affects of contemporary trends in higher education research policy. These trends, including a renewed focus on excellence and the utility of research outcomes, are evident globally, with universities and nations competing to assert their ‘world-class’ status. Research has become an increasingly high stakes activity, critical to institutional positioning in national and international league tables and a key signifier of material and symbolic capitals for universities, departments and individual academics. Research is also a highly gendered arena, with (white) men in the UK continuing to hold the majority of senior posts and more likely to be judged research ‘excellent’ than their women peers.
