Lords Science and Technology Committee publish report on Science research funding in universities

Key Points: 
  • Funding for science research in universities in jeopardy, warns Lords Committee
    The Augar Review did not take a holistic approach to the funding of universities and made no attempt to assess the potential impact of its recommended changes in the funding of higher education on the funding of research.
  • Any loss in funding would require universities to divert other income streams to support teaching, reducing the resources available to support research.
  • Lord Patel , Chair of the Committee, said:
    The Augar Review has completely missed the mark by not considering research funding in its review.
  • As the UK is a net beneficiary of EU research funding this amount will be greater than the amount the UK currently contributes to the EU research pot.
