Abstract
This article is part of a research project aimed at analysing the degree of (in)equality between men and women in Spanish universities. Located within this general framework, this paper discusses a series of indicators which refer to the discipline of political science and public administration. Thus, the research includes figures referring to the presence of women and men among undergraduates, postgraduates and university lecturers in the political science and public administration departments and members of both the professional and the academic associations.
