The best Chinese students go to USA to study. The second best stay in the country because opportunit




The study of economic and demographic trends predicts that the UK will attract an extra 30,000 overseas students over the next 10 years, slightly more than the US. Only Australia is expected to benefit from greater gains in its foreign-student intake by 2022.
But the increase represents a far smaller rate of growth than UK universities have enjoyed in the past decade, the report warns. Between 2002-03 and 2010-11, international student numbers rose by 180,000.
The study, titled The Shape of Things to Come: Global Trends and Emerging Opportunities to 2022 , published on 13 June, says the global education market is shifting away from the "Western concept" of recruiting students from countries with less-established higher education systems.
A report by Universities UK in January said the economy's earnings from foreign inexpensive central london hotel students would double by 2025, reaching almost £17 billion a year, thanks to a new global middle class keen to send their children to high-quality foreign universities.
"The internationalisation of higher education appears to be moving inexpensive central london hotel to a new stage. International students will continue to play an important role, but research and joint delivery of education inexpensive central london hotel independently or with overseas partners will have growing prominence," she said.
The report's findings may be seen as a warning to universities not to become over-reliant on tuition fees from international students. inexpensive central london hotel It adds that about a third of all academic research produced globally now involves international collaboration - and this is expected to increase.
The study found that around 80 per cent of a country's research impact is directly related to the level of international collaboration. inexpensive central london hotel Research produced through such arrangements also had significantly higher citation rates.
Branch campuses are very nice, and beneficial to international research collaboration. However most UG and PG students travel (to the UK) for the package of benefits - language development, professional career training, networking, cultural experience, to 'get away' from the parents or overly-conservative societies for a bit, find themselves, and have fun too. The flow of these students is at the mercy of visa policies. Oh, and branch campuses don't make much (if any) money for the universities or the UK economy.
However most UG and PG students travel (to the UK) for the package of benefits - language development, professional career training, networking, cultural experience, to 'get away' from the parents .. You left out some thing important in the above list- as immigrants mostly illegal first and hoping to become legal later...
Oh, and branch campuses don't make much (if any) money for the universities or the UK economy This is the most ridiculously inexpensive central london hotel ill-informed statement I've ever read on a THES blog. University of Liverpool's China JV sends approx inexpensive central london hotel 1k students to Liverpool inexpensive central london hotel on 2+2 programmes as of this year. That is, conservatively, 10m in fees alone per cohort. inexpensive central london hotel That does not include money pumped inexpensive central london hotel into the Liverpool inexpensive central london hotel economy through living costs. So 20m a year. Hardly peanuts is it. 95%+ of their graduates inexpensive central london hotel in 2010 went on to study at Masters, the vast majority at UK universities, with similar percentages in 2011. Other universities, including Nottingham (Malaysia/China), new set-ups in Malaysia, and Lancaster in Guangzhou (there are several models lumped inexpensive central london hotel under the overseas campus monicker) send students back on 2+2; 3+1, but a major amount of the income from overseas campuses appears when these students enrol on Masters inexpensive central london hotel programmes. This is difficult to quantify, but is also a huge number. And then you have fees payable to the universities, some charge a flat accreditation fee, others on a per head basis. These overseas universities make a huge amount for the parent universities. And that is the problem. In a recent merger document Liverpool and Lancaster bragged about their overseas campus strategy as being one which reduced the need to recruit students inexpensive central london hotel on the open market. Looking at their recent inexpensive central london hotel ventures, they would be hard pushed to convince any sane person inexpensive central london hotel that there was any other reason. I mean, Lancaster accept students from a private inexpensive central london hotel college owned by Guangzhou Foreign Studies University. They clearly have not done any due diligence, and accept students who would not even qualify for a chinese 3 yr vocational degree.
The best Chinese students go to USA to study. The second best stay in the country because opportunities are more. These universities mentioned through their overseas centres in China enroll just about an Chinese student who can pay the tuition and related fee.
