The inquiry, to be conducted by Sub-Committee I under the chairmanship of Lord Willis of Knaresborough, will investigate, amongst other things, whether the number of STEM students and graduates is sufficient to meet the needs of industry, the research base, and other sectors, and whether they are of a high enough quality.
A call for evidence inviting written submissions on this inquiry was published on 2 November. The deadline for submissions was 16 December.
