1 Comparing the employability outcomes
of UK-educated Chinese and Hong Kong students, graduating in 2015 and 2016 Esther de Perlaky Nicola Watts University of Warwick 26 November 2018

2 Number of Chinese students studying abroad and returning, 2017
608,400 489,000 Students studying abroad Students returning to China 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 Source: Chinese Ministry of Education, 2017

3 7.95 million domestic Chinese graduates in 2017.
UK is second largest country for Chinese students to study abroad. Almost 80% of Chinese students in the UK are studying business-related courses and half of these are in Msc Finance or audit. Source: IIE Project Atlas,

4 Number of Chinese Students Compared to Total International Students
Country Number of Chinese Students Chinese Students/Total International Students US 328,547 31.50% UK 94,955 19.10% France 28,043 9.10% Australia 97,984 27.30% Russia 20,209 13.40% Canada 83,990 31.80% Germany 30,259 10.10% Japan 74,921 41.60% Source: Chinese Ministry of Education, 2017

5 Why Research? Total number of non-UK students studying in the UK in = 442,375 42% of students studying at postgraduate level in the UK are from outside the EU Chinese students exceed any other nationality Almost one third of non-EU students in the UK are from China. 14% rise in Chinese students studying in UK since Source: UKCISA

6 Phase I Research:

7 ‘Standing Out and Fitting In’
UK HE-wide research project Collected anonymised Chinese graduate destination data for the first time in the UK Aims: To provide evidence-based employability support for UK- educated Chinese students before, during and after their UK studies. To enable UK HE to be better informed and resourced to support the needs of all UK-educated Chinese and Hong Kong students. Report summary: h/chinese_student_report.pdf

11 Part 2: Graduate Destination Research
2014/15 and 2015/16 graduate destination data shared by 28 UK HEIs Sample of 8,470 Chinese students Compared with 91,215 Chinese students in the UK in 2015/16

12 1. Sample size and make up

13 Chinese student sample Whilst different institutions provided data for each of the years, the findings remain consistent Notes 27 institutions provided data for 2015/16 and for 2014/15, however, these were not all the same institutions in each year.

14 Chinese male/female proportions Again, different institutions provided data for each of the years, however, the findings are still consistent. Notes 27 institutions provided data for 2015/16 and for 2014/15, however, these were not all the same institutions in each year.

15 Chinese male/female proportions split by level of study The different institutions providing data for each of the years, continued to show similar findings. Notes 27 institutions provided data for 2015/16 and for 2014/15, however, these were not all the same institutions in each year.

16 Male/female proportions split by level of study Hong Kong also shows similar study by male/female, however, the larger proportion are UG Notes *For data protection purposes, low numbers are suppressed Varying institutions provided Chinese and Hong Kong data.

17 2. Graduate outcomes

18 Chinese Graduate Outcomes
Notes ‘other’ destinations include travelling, due to start a job etc 27 institutions provided data for 2015/16 and for 2014/15, however, these were not all the same institutions in each year.

19 Graduate Outcomes (Undergraduates)
Notes *For data protection purposes, low numbers are suppressed ‘other’ destinations include travelling, due to start a job etc Varying institutions provided Chinese and Hong Kong data.

20 Graduate Outcomes (Postgraduates Taught)
Notes *For data protection purposes, low numbers are suppressed ‘other’ destinations include travelling, due to start a job etc Varying institutions provided Chinese and Hong Kong data.

21 3. Graduate destinations

22 Chinese country of employment
Notes 27 institutions provided data for 2015/16 and for 2014/15, however, these were not all the same institutions in each year.

23 Chinese country of employment (gender)
Notes 27 institutions provided data for 2015/16 and for 2014/15, however, these were not all the same institutions in each year.

24 Country of employment Notes
*For data protection purposes, low numbers are suppressed Varying institutions provided Chinese and Hong Kong data.

25 Global Reach of UK-educated Chinese Graduates
Notes 27 institutions provided data for 2015/16 and for 2014/15, however, these were not all the same institutions in each year.

26 4. Industry destinations

27 Which industries do Chinese graduates work in?
Notes 27 institutions provided data for 2015/16 and for 2014/15, however, these were not all the same institutions in each year.

28 Which industries do Chinese graduates work in? (Gender)
Notes 27 institutions provided data for 2015/16 and for 2014/15, however, these were not all the same institutions in each year.

29 Which industries do graduates work in?
Notes *For data protection purposes, low numbers are suppressed Varying institutions provided Chinese and Hong Kong data

30 We would like your help! As an extension to this research, we would like to collect anonymised graduate destination data to provide a continuing evidence- based picture for the HE-sector of the outcomes for Chinese and Hong Kong students after studying in the UK. Plus expand this research to include other nationalities e.g. India, Singapore and Malaysia (and any others?) And include more analysis eg. including subject studied and details about graduate occupation within a sector
