This thesis is about women arts administrators in Taiwan. From the general researches about arts administration, we found in Taiwan, most workers in this occupation are women, though we lack of research to know why women choose this occupation and how do they consider when making a career decision. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to present the workers¡¦ aspects, their real conditions on arts administration, and to figure out the gender facts influence in those women¡¦s career choice process. The study use case study method, eight cases were from different performance groups, including dance, music, theater, traditional theater and arts booking company. Each of them has at least four and half years working experiences on this field. The research findings will answer three major questions: 1.How and why do these women choose to be an arts administrator. 2.The features of arts administration. 3. How will this job influence personal lives? In the study I found in Taiwan, to be arts administrator does not need special degree or backgrounds, it require more on personalities and characteristics. It is not a high-level entrance occupation and it cannot afford good working conditions. Interest of arts is the major reason to be an arts administrator, in my case studies, there was no one mention about the salaries, the promotion or the welfare at first. In performing arts groups, women workers are more focus on human relations, working atmosphere. They like and enjoy more flexible working institution and more coequal relationship between co-workers. I concluded that on career choice process, gender factors do influence women to choose arts administration as an occupation, although the degree is hard to define in this study. It is also an important factor while explaining why arts administration becomes a woman dominance occupation. This thesis divided into five chapters. Chapter1: Introduction. Chapter2: Literary review. Chapter3: Research methods. Chapter4: Research findings. Chapter 5: Conclusion and discussion.
