User-focused research to increase the diversity of funding programme participation


22/02/2024

The Royal Academy of Engineering has commissioned CRAC to undertake user-focused research to develop insights and make recommendations, to help broaden the diversity of the Academy’s Research Programmes.

In addition to analysing existing administrative data on applicants, the evaluation will comprise cognitive walkthroughs, interviews, and focus groups with potential and former applicants from underrepresented groups, research office staff and heads of engineering departments.

We are currently conducting interviews and focus groups. Please consult our Data Privacy Notice for further information about how we process your information.
