Who studies economics? An analysis of diversity in the UK economics pipeline
This report is the first to explore the diversity of UK economists from a socio-economic background perspective. Using data from the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA), we examine the intersection of socio-economic background, gender, and ethnicity of economics students. We consider who decides to study economics, those who are more likely to drop their economics studies, and who is awarded a good degree in economics.

Abstract
This report is the first to explore the diversity of UK economists from a socio-economic background perspective. Using data from the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA), we examine the intersection of socio-economic background, gender, and ethnicity of economics students. We consider who decides to study economics, those who are more likely to drop their economics studies, and who is awarded a good degree in economics.
