Submission Rates
The submission rate survey looks at the rate of submission of doctoral students who have held AHRC Postgraduate awards. Find out how we are working with institutions to improve these submission rates.
The results of the 2008 doctoral submission rate survey show an overall submission rate of 82% among AHRC doctoral award holders whose award ended over the 3 year period between 1 October 2005 and 30 September 2008. During the year ending 30 September 2008, a total of 593 doctoral award holders at 99 institutions, were included in the survey.
