a report researched by IES

The demand for postgraduate study in the UK is increasing at a much faster rate than undergraduate study. Last year there were approaching half a million postgraduate sutdents in HE study. Much is known about graduate choices and destinations yet far less in known about the rising population of postgraduates.

This report presents the key findings of research into the factors that influence postgraduates’ choice of study at Sussex University, their study experiences and labour market outcomes.
