UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) do not hold any information relevant to your request. Please see the information below.
Potential students do not apply directly to UKRI for a studentship. UKRI awards training grants to research organisations (ROs), which are then responsible for recruiting and managing their students. This includes running their own recruitment processes and collecting student data.
Some data on numbers of applications and awards is collected and submitted by ROs to UKRI, however information is not collected relating to discipline headings, or masters qualifications. Therefore, UKRI do not hold the information with which to answer your request.
