Elizabeth Simon

Elizabeth is a Postdoctoral Researcher in British Politics, based in the Mile End Institute and QMUL's School of Politics and International Relations. She has recently completed her PhD at the University of Southampton.

Elizabeth's research explores how education attainment - and a range of other life experiences and socio-demographic characteristics - shape public opinion, electoral behaviour, and wider society, in modern Britain. Her research interests extend broadly across the topic of political behaviour and she is currently working on a number of projects that relate to issues of identity formation and inequality.

Her research has been cited in the Financial Times, The Guardian, as well as the Times Higher Education Supplement.
