This thesis mainly centers around associate professors and what they express to be their core personal values with respect to work and life, in general, where these values are discussed in a gender perspective. Fewer women, than men, reach professorship at universities, and men on average also achieve this academic goal faster than women. The relationship between this gender imbalance and the personal values is the focal point of the discussion. The empirical evidence is based on five interviews with three female, and two male associate professors. Through qualitative methods and thematic analysis, the personal values such as teaching/supervising students, reaching professorship/career and family values appeared in the data material. As I would come to find, some of these values were difficult for the associate professors to combine and would give rise to a conflict of values between the values of the university and his/her own values. These conflicts must be considered within the context of neoliberal governance (new public management), in addition to being influenced by the standards they are compared to.
