Despite the increasing diversity of UK universities, BAME women remain underrepresented in postgraduate research programs. #diversity #BAMEstudents #academia oxfordmail.co.uk/news/nation…

Less than one in five postgraduate research students are from ethnic minorities

The figures come amid growing calls to diversify university campuses.
