Council for the Defence of British Universities – Call for Funded Research Project

Funding available for applicants to undertake research into any aspect of higher education in the UK, including governance, policy, curricula developments, and staff and student welfare and wellbeing. 

The Council for the Defence of British Universities (CDBU), an organisation opposed to the ‘marketisation’ of UK universities, is providing funding for applicants to conduct research into any aspect of higher education in the UK. Topics in scope include governance, policy, curricula developments, and staff and student welfare and wellbeing. Comparisons between Britain and other countries are especially welcome.

The projects can start from 1 September 2022 and must be completed by 30 June 2023, alongside a report for the CDBU website.
