Summary
Key Points: 
  • How will the Augar Review impact science research funding in universities?
  • The House of Lords Science and Technology Committee will question the Provost of UCL and the former Vice-Chancellor of Cambridge University as part of its ongoing inquiry to assess the impact of potential changes in funding on the ability of universities to conduct high-quality scientific research.
  • The Augar Review into Post-18 Education and Funding has recommended the cap on tuition fees to be lowered to 7,500 from 2021-22.
  • What are the implications of lower QR (Quality-Related) funding as a proportion of Research Council funding and does this impact the type of research undertaken?
