Widening Participation in Post Graduate Study meeting

NEON Working Groups

This Working Group is organised by The University of Manchester.

This Working Group aims to bring together widening participation practitioners and careers staff to share best practice that will:

Support WP UG students into PG study – working with careers advisers and academic staff to provide effective IAG on what PG study is, and whether it is the right choice for them
Consider diversity of incoming PG cohorts – known participation gaps exist across the sector across various WP indicators; HE participation at UG level does not always result in a level playing field
Consider metrics for the evaluation of intervention activity to support progression of WP students to PG study
Seek opportunities to share best practice at a national level
