Abstract
The number of non-EU students entering UK higher education has fallen for the first time for many year, especially students from South Asia. The UK government is under pressure from the neo-nationalist UK independence Party to reduce all forms of migration and international education has been caught by this.
Highlights
A Complex Picture It is important to keep in mind that the results of such a comprehensive survey reveal a lot more than a few key findings
The institutions in Middle East and Africa have increased their funding for almost half of the areas of internationalization proposed in the questionnaire, which included a dozen specific activities as options
This is in sharp contrast to institutions in Europe or North America, where funding increases were reported by the majority of respondents in the case of only two internationalization activities, among the 12 possibilities
Summary
A Complex Picture It is important to keep in mind that the results of such a comprehensive survey reveal a lot more than a few key findings. This survey, like the earlier International Association of Universities survey reports, presents data on the many different dimensions of internationalization and compares results across world regions as well as changes over time. The responses that result in near-complete consensus are rare, but respondents from higher education institutions across all regions almost unanimously point to a lack of funding, as the most important barrier to advancing internationalization.
