This book explores the unique set of challenges faced by mature-age
male undergraduates as they adapt to university study. The authors
examine the motivations of mature male students for enrolling in
higher education and their aspirations for life after graduation,
in doing so filling a crucial gap in the current literature. Later
access to higher education carries numerous benefits, including
improved social mobility: it is therefore paramount to understand
why men tend to be underrepresented among mature students.
Exploring the intersections of socioeconomic status, ethnicity,
culture and gender, and paying careful attention to the stories of
the students themselves, the authors provide a thought-provoking
analysis of an underrepresented student group. The book will be of
interest and value to students and scholars of mature-age male
students, and aspirations and motivations within higher education
more generally.
