Details
This evaluation carried out by EPSRC is a review of EPSRC funded doctoral education.
The goal is to provide some recommendations with an ambition to increase UK research and innovation activity.
The report is split into two sections.
- The first section provides context for EPSRC’s current doctoral support and recent Government strategies. It also covers information on EPSRC’s current mechanisms of support.
- The second section considers the following aspects of doctoral education:
- the value of doctoral education: to the individual and their career, to the research landscape and to employers
- skills and experiences: what skills and experiences should be provided by a doctorate
- student population: how to enable a more diverse student population, including increased mobility between academia and industry
- how the doctorate is provided: including different qualifications, ways of providing the doctoral experience and how support is provided
- ways of identifying, developing, and responding to strategic priorities: how can the landscape respond to changing directions and needs.
