Since 2018 analysis of the Longitudinal Educational Outcomes (LEO) dataset, a linked administrative dataset created by the UK government, have estimated the "returns" to higher education - the difference in income for graduates, compared to those that don't attend University, and variations in graduate incomes according to the kind of institution that they attend, their personal characteristics (gender, age, ethnicity and socio-economic status), and the subject(s) that they study. Many of the analyses reported that, on average, graduates of creative arts degrees (including art and design, performing arts and media studies) had only a small "graduate premium" in earnings compared to similar people who had not attended University, or at least less than graduates in other subjects.This topic is of considerable policy interest, both for Higher Education and also Cultural and Creative Industries (CCIs) Policy. Creative education in the UK is highly-regarded internationally, and these degrees are seen as routes into work in CCIs, which saw job numbers increasing by three times the rate of employment in the UK between 2011 and 2019. In 2023 the Department for Culture, Media and Sport specified the contrast being the buoyancy of the CCIs and the lower earnings of creative graduates as an Area of Research Interest.This fellowship will use the second iteration of the LEO dataset for a focused analysis of creative education and creative employment. This new version of LEO now offers data on earnings linked to industry of employment, which creates an opportunity to examine whether lower creative graduate earnings are associated with work within CCIs, in Education (a common destination for creative graduates) or elsewhere. Additionally, previous studies found that many in creative occupations had not studied creative subjects: there is strong interest both from scholars and from policymakers to understand the educational routes into creative employment. The policy relevance of this fellowship is urgent, given suggestions that the government should reduce the number of places on degrees that did not offer high graduate earnings, cuts by DoE that predominantly affect creative arts degrees, and announcements of programme closures by Birkbeck, Goldsmiths others, largely in the creative arts.This fellowship will analyse earnings of creative graduates, and of creative workers, to address the relationship between degree subject, institution, and industry of employment, as well as social inequalities, in explaining different earnings outcomes. This will be triangulated against the Labour Force and Annual Population Surveys, which capture information on workforce and employment characteristics. The fellowship benefits from two mentors: Professor Cristina Iannelli, an internationally regarded expert in social stratification in education and the labour market, graduate outcomes and the impact of subject choices in education; and Dr Will Cook, an economist and former government adviser with expertise in the analysis of educational outcomes.The fellowship builds on, and contributes to, the Fellow's broader research on inequalities and social mobility in the creative economy. As co-author of the book "Culture is bad for you" she has expertise in how social class background, education and social networks are involved in success in creative careers. Building on this work, this fellowship will make a significant and innovative contribution to understanding of social and educational inequalities in creative work, according to levels of pay, and will help to ensure that the sector is a rewarding workplace for all.

自2018年以来，对纵向教育成果（LEO）数据集（英国政府创建的关联行政数据集）的分析估计了高等教育的“回报”--与未上大学的毕业生相比，毕业生的收入差异大学，以及根据他们就读的机构类型、个人特征而变化的毕业生收入（性别、年龄、种族和社会经济地位）以及他们学习的科目。许多分析报告显示，平均而言，创意艺术学位（包括艺术与设计、表演艺术和媒体研究）的毕业生与没有上过大学的类似人群相比，收入只有很小的“毕业溢价”，或者至少比其他学科的毕业生少。这一主题对高等教育和文化创意产业政策都具有相当大的政策意义。英国的创意教育在国际上受到高度重视，这些学位被视为在CCI工作的途径，2011年至2019年期间，CCI的就业人数增长了英国就业率的三倍。2023年，文化、媒体和体育部将CCI的繁荣和创意毕业生的低收入作为研究兴趣领域。该奖学金将使用LEO数据集的第二次迭代，对创意教育和创意就业进行重点分析。这个新版本的LEO现在提供与就业行业相关的收入数据，这为研究创造性毕业生收入较低是否与CCIs，教育（创造性毕业生的共同目的地）或其他地方的工作有关提供了机会。此外，先前的研究发现，许多从事创造性职业的人没有学习过创造性学科：学者和政策制定者都有浓厚的兴趣了解创造性就业的教育途径。该奖学金的政策相关性是紧迫的，鉴于建议政府应该减少学位的数量，没有提供高毕业生收入，能源部削减主要影响创意艺术学位，以及伯克贝克，金史密斯等宣布关闭计划，主要是在创意艺术。探讨学位学科、院校、就业行业与社会不平等之间的关系，以解释不同的收入结果。这将与劳动力和年度人口调查进行三角比较，后者收集关于劳动力和就业特征的信息。该研究金受益于两名导师：Cristina Iannelli教授，她是教育和劳动力市场社会分层、研究生成果和教育中学科选择的影响方面的国际知名专家;以及经济学家、前政府顾问威尔·库克博士，他在教育成果分析方面拥有专业知识。该奖学金建立在，并有助于，研究员对创意经济中的不平等和社会流动性的更广泛研究。作为《文化对你不好》一书的合著者，她在社会阶层背景、教育和社交网络如何参与创造性职业的成功方面拥有专业知识。在这项工作的基础上，该研究金将为理解创造性工作中的社会和教育不平等做出重大和创新的贡献，根据工资水平，并将有助于确保该部门成为所有人的有益工作场所。
