Solutions for solving the student retention crisis
Universities are facing ongoing challenges keeping their students. During this panel discussion, featuring student and educator perspectives, panellists will discuss several of the key issues putting people off from completing their university programme.
This session will address the importance of inclusion and student wellbeing, highlighting how mental health services, support for underrepresented groups, and concerns around university closures are critical to improving retention rates. It will also explore how rising tuition fees and increasing living expenses are creating financial barriers to education.
This panel will bring together educator and student perspectives to examine how these factors directly impact student retention through proactive, student-centred strategies.
