Roundtable Report: Access to and Success in Research-Intensive Postgraduate Courses
December 2024
Students from non-research intensive (NRI) institutions for their undergraduate (UG) degree are struggling to access postgraduate (PG) study at research intensive (RI) institutions within the UK, irrespective of the grades they achieve. For those that do transition into RI institutions, they find this transition particularly challenging, with preliminary evaluation from the Martingale Foundation showing that they are more likely to consider dropping out.
In August 2024, Martingale Foundation and Public First brought together top researchers and policy specialists in the area of access to postgraduate study for a roundtable discussion on the challenges of transitioning from a NRI institution at UG to a RI institution for PG study or research, primarily in the UK. This report is a culmination of the rich discussion during the roundtable, the foundation of which was the challenge of supporting students with an NRI background to access PG degrees.
