M: Good evening. Prof. Sampson. As an educationist and head of the Education Centre, what are your viewpoints on the increasing number of international students on our campuses? What do you think are the major causes?
W: Well, during the last decade, the number of foreign students in our universities more than doubled, with an average annual growth of almost 7%. Of these enrolled foreign students, Asian students representing 53%. There are a number of factors driving this general increase. For example, the exploding demands for higher education worldwide and the perceived value of studying at prestigious universities abroad. As national economies become more interconnected and participation in education expands, more people are looking to higher education to broaden their horizons and help themselves to better understand the world’s languages, cultures and business methods. One way for individuals to expand their knowledge and thus improve their prospects in the globalised labour market, is to study in higher institutions in countries other than their own. Besides, universities such as ours are also undertaking major marketing efforts to attract more foreign students.
M: What are the driving forces for such marketing efforts to attract more foreign students?
W: The enrolment of foreign students can provide an opportunity for host education systems to improve the cost-efficiency of their education systems. For example, it can help countries focus limited resources on educational programmes, or expand participation in higher education without having to expand the system within the country itself. For host countries, it can not only help raise revenues from higher education, but also can be part of a broader strategy to recruit highly skilled immigrants.
M: What are the major destinations of foreign students?
W: According to statistics, G20 countries attract 83% of foreign students worldwide while EU21 countries host the largest proportion of foreign students, with 40% of all foreign students. North America is the second most attractive region for foreign students, with 21 % of the total. In absolute terms, the United States hosted most of these students, with 17% of all foreign students, followed by the United Kingdom(13%), Australia(8%), Germany(7%), France(6%), and Canada(5%). In recent years, we have also noticed a significant increase of foreign students in Asian countries like China and India.
M: One more question on the part of the foreign students, what are the underlying factors in their choice of a country of study?
W: Well, there are a number of factors. The first one is the language of instruction. The language spoken and used in instruction sometimes determines the country in which a student chooses to study. The prevalence of predominantly English-speaking destinations, such as Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States, reflects the progressive adoption of English as a global language. It may also reflect the fact that students intending to study abroad are likely to have learned English in their home country or wish to improve their English-language skills through immersion in a native English-speaking context. Next, it is the quality of programmes. International students increasingly select their study destination based on the quality of education offered. Before they apply, they will dig up a wide array of information on higher education programmes now available, both in print and on line. For instance, the top-ranked universities and colleges and the rankings of higher education institutions based in fast-growing student destinations. It is difficult, however, to establish a correlation between patterns of student mobility and quality judgments on individual institutions. Last but not least, the tuition fees. But the charging policies in education are so diverse for countries or regions that you have to check with each institution of higher education you intend to go and study.
M: Prof. Sampson, thank you very much for your time and effort.
