Agree. Cuts in UKRI funded PhD places, is about government funding and prioritisation. We need work force planning with joined up thinking
A PhD is not about an academic career, its an apprenticeship for the knowledge economy. "Europe's Silicon Valley" will not exist without PhDs

This is (a) obvious and (b) has been discussed for decades. Don't blame UKRI. What is really needed is workforce planning at a national level. What should the HE/FE sector look like for research and training, and therefore how many PhD places do we need?
