Making the most of international education: Department for Education and Department for International Trade 28th November 2017

International Higher Education: priorities and opportunities Hannah Wiskin Department for Education Deputy Director, Higher Education EU / International Policy and Prevent

International Higher Education: our role as Department for Education Strategy and policy International relations Influencing and aligning broader HMG agendas Cohesive and positive messaging Supporting sector and stakeholders Coordination and virtual leadership Funding

Working with broader HMG agendas We also have a role in influencing and fostering consistency across HMG’s other agendas: Regulatory framework (wider DfE) Transnational education and wider trade agenda (DIT) Exiting the EU (across HMG) DfE HE International Migration policy (Home Office) Research (BEIS) Scholarships (FCO)

Why is international important? Soft power and market share: Overseas delivery opens up the UK’s HE sector to new markets. Helps promote the reputation and reach of UK HE. Economic and cultural value of international students to the UK: The UK remains a highly attractive destination for non-EU students, with numbers remaining at record highs. Over 170,000 non-EU entrants to UK HEIs for the sixth year running. International higher education students (EU and Non-EU) contributed an estimated £11.1bn to the UK economy in 2014 through tuition fees and living expenditure.  Internationalising and diversifying campuses. Developing global citizens: Competitive advantage for those with international experience. Link between outward mobility and improved outcomes (salaries and employment prospects etc).

Shaping our international HE activity Attracting Global Talent Inward mobility of staff and students Getting the right message across Migration regime that attracts talent and avoids abuse Developing Globally Minded Citizens Outward mobility of staff and students Social mobility Diversity and integration Trade and innovation Education exports – inward mobility and overseas provision (e.g. TNE) Feeding education priorities into trade agenda Facilitating global relationships Recognition of qualifications Sharing learning and best practice from other international education systems Building capacity overseas

Listening to the independent HE sector

Consultation on the Regulatory Framework OfS regulatory framework consultation running from 19th October – 22nd December Recognise there are a variety of perspectives and a wealth of insights across the diverse independent HE sector on this. Our particular interest regards impacts on international students and the tier 4 visa process. We welcome views from the independent HE sector on this and encourage responding to the consultation.

The Migration Advisory Committee (MAC) commission for students Commissioned to provide an independent, objective assessment of the impact of international students. Likely to report in September 2018. It will look to address: EU and non-EU students at all levels of education Impact of tuition fees and other spending by international students on the national, regional, and local economy and on the education sector Contribution to local economic growth Impact their recruitment has on provision and quality of education provided to domestic students. We greatly value the perspective of the independent sector, and would encourage your contribution of evidence to the commission to ensure this voice is heard.

Transnational Education Definitions? ‘The general principal of TNE is that students can study towards a foreign qualification without leaving their home country; meaning that the programmes and providers cross national and regional borders, not generally the student.’ (British Council) Types? Joint programmes; dual degrees; international branch campuses; franchise; external validation; online delivery Subject areas? Delivered across almost all academic areas at all levels of study British Council ref, https://www.britishcouncil.org/sites/default/files/the_shape_of_things_to_come_2.pdf, page 12

Independent HE Survey – TNE Plans Independent HE Survey (July 2017 Report) – medium term TNE plans by 2020 – 9% – new campus in EU 11% – new non-EU campus 26% – new international partnership 26% – new online delivery TNE as a key pillar of institutional international strategy?
