Office for Students Transparency Data
The Office for Students requires the University to publish attainment data.
The information published on these pages shows the number of students who attained a particular degree or other academic awards, or a particular level of such an award, on completion of their course with us. It also shows these numbers by reference to:
• the gender of the individuals to which they relate
• their ethnicity
• their socio-economic background
