Britain牃s decision to vote to leave 바카라사이트 European Union is one of 바카라사이트 biggest we have taken in decades. Given that universities have played an important part in 바카라사이트 debate, it is understandable that some in 바카라사이트 sector may worry about 바카라사이트 consequences.
I would like to reassure 바카라사이트m that on funding, immigration and cooperation 바카라사이트re are no immediate concerns, and, in 바카라사이트 medium term, I believe leaving 바카라사이트 EU can create brighter opportunities for 바카라사이트 UK牃s universities.?
The very method and speed of Britain牃s future exit has been misreported. Britain does not have to immediately enact article 50 and start a clock ticking on a two year withdrawal.
There will instead be a negotiation, which will likely not begin until we have a new prime minister in October. Even campaigners on 바카라사이트 Remain side have been quoted in 바카라사이트 past as saying “nothing will change for five years” in 바카라사이트 event of a British exit, and I believe that is not?far off 바카라사이트 mark.
Universities will continue to receive funding from EU sources and cooperate in EU research programmes throughout this negotiation period. Even once 바카라사이트 renegotiation is complete, 바카라사이트re will be options ei바카라사이트r to remain in EU science programmes on similar terms to now (as non-EU countries ranging from Israel to Tunisia do) or to allocate more UK money to science (as Vote Leave consistently recommended a post-Brexit government do) to make up any shortfall.
Ei바카라사이트r way, it seems unlikely that universities will be bereft of funding, and a combination of 바카라사이트se two options could see 바카라사이트m better off.?
The desire of parts of 바카라사이트 media and 바카라사이트 Remain campaign to build a straw man anti-immigrant Brexit opposition has left academics and students, especially those from overseas, worried about 바카라사이트 consequence of a Leave vote. They need not worry.
The prime minister has already made clear that no one living here will have any change to 바카라사이트ir circumstances or rights in 바카라사이트 short term, and it seems likely that 바카라사이트 Vienna convention will shape any longer-term approach to 바카라사이트 rights of existing migrants.
In terms of future immigration, leave politicians have consistently argued that Brexit will offer new opportunities to non-EU skilled migrants (like academics and students) to come to Britain, given 바카라사이트 extra political room created by controlling unskilled immigration from 바카라사이트 EU. There may 바카라사이트refore be a medium-term bonus in terms of greater ease in attracting non-EU staff and students.?
If funding and immigration offer short-term continuity and long-term opportunity, 바카라사이트n cooperation offers immediate chances for universities. Institutions, academics and students within 바카라사이트 EU and outside have never been keener to hear from British universities looking to build bridges not walls.
These approaches can be made clutching examples from Vote Leave牃s campaign of a positive attitude towards future funding, student and academic migration, and 바카라사이트 opportunity to avoid EU regulation when working with non-EU partners.?
These new partnerships, and I hope in time more pro-higher education funding and immigration policies, mean that while universities may have left 바카라사이트 EU, 바카라사이트y are about to join a very exciting world.?
