OfS Student Numbers & Size and Shape of Provision

This dashboard provides data on the number or students engaging in study at Lancaster Univesity. It also gives us some insight on the demographic make-up of the undergraduate and poostgraduate student populations.

In the "Select provider" box, search for and select "The University of Lancaster". The dashboard will automatically show data aggregated over the 19/20, 20/21, 21/22, and 22/23 academic years. We would suggest selecting "2022/2023" in the "Select year" option. We suggest using percentages as the numerical data includes a significant amount of rounding.

For guidance on how to navigate this dashboard, and interpret the data within it, please see the dashboard user guide.
