Fewer than four in ten postgraduate researchers (PGRs) with non-visible disabilities are happy with the support they receive from their university, according to a new UCU report 'Non-visibly Disabled PGR Experiences of Studies and Careers'.

The report finds that PGRs face challenges accessing help as they are both students and employees, but support systems are primarily designed for undergraduate students.
