Wallace, Caroline
- Abstract
The article discusses the management of the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) in safeguarding strategic science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) provision in several universities in Great Britain. HEFCE identifies its role as a broker in sustaining and developing human or physical capacity within higher education. The HEFCE is a major source of income for English universities and plays an important role in fulfilling the Great Britain's Government ambition to advance the quality of STEM education, as well as to increase the supply of STEM graduates.
