Hoang, Cuong Huu; Turner, Marianne – Journal of Higher Education Policy and Management, 2023
Many scholars from developing countries receive financial incentives to go to Western countries to study and are then expected to return to develop their home country's research capacity.

Kahn, Michael; Oghenetega, Joshua – Industry and Higher Education, 2021
The mobility of the highly skilled, summarized as brain drain, brain circulation and brain gain, remains a contentious issue for policy. Even so, the evidence base to inform policy remains poor. This gap is of particular importance to policymakers in countries that experience brain drain. This paper reports on the findings of a tracer study of…

Davies, Scott; Aurini, Janice – European Journal of Higher Education, 2021
This paper describes three eras of state building and higher education in Canada. Higher education in 'Old Canada' before WWII was mostly a small collection of colleges that bore imprints of American and British institutions and provided personnel needed to develop a vast and sparsely populated territory. The 'Hey Day of Canadian Nationalism' from…

In this period of uncertainty, the mobility of people is one of the main issues at stake. The topic…

The Japanese higher education system has struggled with a demographic decline of the university-age population since the 1990s. The expected shrinkage of the overall consumer market due to ageing also significantly pressures Japanese enterprises to expand business in the global market outside Japan. Under these conditions, Japanese universities,…

Song, Jia; Chu, Zhaofeng; Xu, Yuwei – Higher Education: The International Journal of Higher Education Research, 2021
Creating world-class universities (WCUs) has recently become a significant policy and practice in higher education in China under the Double World-Class Project. However, some negative effects have encouraged decoupling from the policy goals. To identify the reasons, we conducted policy document analysis and purposive interviews at three elite…

Cerna, Lucie; Chou, Meng-Hsuan – Globalisation, Societies and Education, 2023
Taking the migration-higher education nexus as an analytical entry point, we address the question: How can we account for different internationalisation outcomes?

Hanssen, Thor-Erik Sandberg; Mathisen, Terje Andreas – Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, 2018
High school graduates in rural counties often move to urban areas to study at higher education institutions (HEIs). Because graduates from HEIs often settle in regions in which they graduate, the result is a permanent out-migration of young talent from rural areas. This study adds to the body of literature on student choice by addressing measures…
