GRADUATE STUDENT STATISTICS
At the beginning of the academical year 2019-20, there were 463 students in residence registered for undergraduate degrees, 252 men, 210 women and 1 undisclosed. Corresponding numbers for 2018/19 were 459, 259 and 200.
In January 2020 there were approximately 326 fulltime graduate students who were part of the College; the total changes throughout the year as, for instance, PhD students are approved for their degrees, and so a ‘snapshot’ is presented.

About 39% of the full-time graduate students were from the UK, about 22% from European Union countries, and about 39% from outside the European Union. The graduate student body was about 62% male and 38% female.
In Easter Term 2020, given the exceptional circumstances of this year, the only students formally classed in their Assessments were undergraduate Finalists and graduate students. Scholarships and Prizes were, therefore, only awarded to undergraduate Finalists and (where applicable) graduate students.
Of the full-time graduate students, 57% were either registered as candidates for a PhD or on track to be so registered (185 students), and 32% were undertaking MPhil or other one-year Masters degrees, some as a precursor to studying for a PhD. Other full-time students were in medical or veterinary studies (32 students), undertaking other courses such as those leading to PGCE or LLM, or at the Judge Institute working for an MBA.
The total number of students awarded Firsts was 70. It was agreed that in the interests of consistency we would define ‘Finalists’, in this context, as all third- and fourth-year undergraduates receiving classed results, whether graduating or continuing to integrated Masters courses.

There were also 123 part-time graduate students; about 69% male and 31% female; and about 43% UK, 15% EU, and 42% from outside the EU. The largest group was 93 senior Police Officers studying Applied Criminology and Police Management. There were 16 other Master of Studies students, 10 PhD and PhD-track students and 4 students on other courses.
