Dr Mandy Crow and Jared Patel from Loughborough University discuss the five things they have learned from their involvement on TASO’s project to develop theories of change and evaluation plans for interventions addressing the ethnicity degree awarding gap.

As part of our ‘Ethnicity degree awarding gap’ project, our new blog series presents views from our partners about their experiences, thoughts and aims for the project partnership.

TASO is partnering with six higher education providers and an independent evaluator to develop Theories of Change and evaluation plans for interventions which aim to close the ethnicity degree awarding gap.

This blog provides a progress update on the first year of evaluating a programme to improve access and participation for black, Asian and minority ethnic students in postgraduate research. Jointly funded by the Office for Students and Research England, the programme has provided nearly £8 million to 13 projects.
