Higher Education, Social Class and Social Mobility

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the experiences of undergraduate students, this book examines the interplay between higher education, social class, and social mobility. It follows a cohort from Bristol's universities over three years, comparing middle-class and working-class students paired by university and subject. Through narrative data, the study highlights the challenges and opportunities within a stratified higher education system, assessing its role as a potential pathway for social mobility as students approach the labor market or further studies.
