Student Market Insight
This section gives a flavour of the type of work we undertake – but many of the projects are bespoke as we respond to ad hoc client briefs.
At The Knowledge Partnership we have the rounded skills and professional backgrounds to undertake a range of research and evaluative commissions. Our staff includes members of the MRS, the CIM, the Academy of Marketing and the CIPR.
Our project work in Europe and Australasia allows us to provide UK clients with more rounded analysis and informed approaches. Our original and published research places us at the leading edge of professional practice.

We regularly invite universities and colleges to subscribe to a research programme devised by The Knowledge Partnership based on soundings with clients to identify “hot topics”.
Subscribers gain exclusive access to the results, analysis and reports at a price that is a fraction of what they would have had to pay for the research on an ad hoc basis.
Current Projects:
The Postgraduate Fees Monitor – The Knowledge Partnership is developing an extensive database of all postgraduate taught courses across England and Wales, collating published data on 2012/13 tuition fees to provide a valuable, fully searchable database to aid your fee setting.
In addition to tuition fees we are collecting IELTs and work experience entry requirements to help align pricing policies.

Higher Education Parental Relations – following on from our major research study into the influence of parents on higher education decision making and university relations with parents, we are planning a new wave of research in light of the changes to undergraduate tuition fees from September 2012.
