Summary/Abstract: Purpose – Women's involvement in work and social life has led academic studies to concentrate on gender. The vast majority of research conducted by different disciplines focuses on the barriers women face in business. Research on women's commitment to the institution and its role in its formation is limited. Therefore, the main purpose of the study is to determine the role of woman academicians in the formation of organizational commitment and to examine the relationship between them. Design/methodology/approach – In the study, firstly, organizational and organizational commitment issues were explained separately and then the situation of woman academicians and their role in the organization were mentioned. Questionnaires were prepared according to the structured interview technique by using the relevant literature. With the help of the questions, the data required for the study were obtained from woman academicians in the Kyrgyzstan-Turkey Manas University. Findings: Interviews were conducted with 16 female academicians. Most of the participants (68,75%) were found to be academicians for more than 10 years. Married (87,50%) participants were found to be predominant and to have a general sense of organizational commitment.
