Student Matters

More young people are going into higher education now than ever before. Meanwhile, the debate about university standards continues to rage. Are degrees still valuable to modern employers? Is university too expensive? Is the graduate job market saturated? Does a university education boost social mobility? Is the higher education system elitist? These are just some of the questions debated in Student Matters. The information comes from a wide range of sources and includes government reports and statistics, newspaper reports, features, magazine articles and surveys, literature from lobby groups and charitable organisations.
