NEON Working Groups
Date

Time
2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
The NEON Working Group aims to bring together practitioners and researchers to share best practice, innovate and test models that will:
- Widen access to postgraduate taught and doctoral study addressing gaps where there is under-representation. This includes a project to trial the use of additional criteria in the admissions process;
- Contribute to the depth and breadth of understanding of barriers to, and within postgraduate study, sharing research and considering intersections of disadvantage;
- Consider metrics for the evaluation of intervention activity to support progression of under-represented groups , and within, postgraduate study;
- Seek opportunities to share best practice at a national level
This Working Group is organised by the University of Leeds.
