Universities from across Yorkshire have come together to improve access to doctoral study for graduates from Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic (BAME) backgrounds.

The Yorkshire Consortium for Equity in Doctoral Education, led by  the University of York and including the Universities of Leeds, Bradford, Sheffield, and Sheffield Hallam, seeks to minimise any disadvantages experienced by graduates from BAME backgrounds in accessing doctoral level study, and enable and encourage those students to reach their full potential.

The YCEDE project officially launched at the Principal Hotel, York on 26th May.
