Dr Freeman joins the podcast to talk about the work of the Centre for Doctoral Education, including the In2Research project which aims to address inequalities across the postgraduate research student lifecycle and the barriers facing Black, Asian and minority ethnic groups, and a MOOC designed to shed light on what it’s really like to be a doctoral student.
Institutions have also been considering how they can best provide support to students after PhD completion. Dr Freeman describesÌýwhat work has been done at IOE and the impact he hopes this will make.
