Research results

We know little of what happens to doctoral researchers shortly (or indeed some years) after their doctorate ?????? and especially little about what happens to international students (who have not been included in the analyses of the HESA -First Destination- Surveys).

We also know little about how alumni feel about their doctoral experience, what they think they learned, and whether it was worthwhile ????????

Nor do we know if and how they may subsequently disseminate any of the results of their research, though this is important in establishing the contribution of the doctorate to national research and development/knowledge transfer.
