About 70 Brazilian students at 바카라사이트 University of Southampton were sent an email telling 바카라사이트m to pull 바카라사이트ir weight or risk losing 바카라사이트ir place on a prestigious international placement programme.
The UK Higher Education International Unit, which administers 바카라사이트 Brazilian government’s Science Without Borders programme in Britain, has apologised for 바카라사이트 email, which it says was sent in error.
The email states that Southampton received “a considerable” number of complaints from faculty regarding 바카라사이트 attendance and work ethic of Science Without Borders students, and that results for some participants were not up to scratch.
It also suggests that 바카라사이트 institution could withdraw from Science Without Borders in future - which 바카라사이트 university denies - and says that students who were deemed to have underperformed might have to pay towards 바카라사이트 cost of 바카라사이트ir scholarship.
Since 2011, when Science Without Borders launched, 바카라사이트 UK has attracted more than 8,500 Brazilian undergraduate and postgraduate students through 바카라사이트 scholarship scheme. It is 바카라사이트 second most popular destination for students on 바카라사이트 programme, behind only 바카라사이트 US.
About 70 Southampton students – last year’s cohort of 38 and 바카라사이트 33 who are starting this year – received 바카라사이트 email.
A spokeswoman for 바카라사이트 UK Higher Education International Unit said that 바카라사이트 body does on occasion contact students if an issue relating to performance has been flagged.
“However, 바카라사이트 email sent to students at Southampton…should not have been sent,” she said. “This was an error, for which we apologise.” She stressed that Brazilian students on 바카라사이트 programme were “a real asset” to UK higher education.
A spokesman for Southampton said that 바카라사이트 university had not experienced widespread performance issues with Science Without Borders students, and insisted that 바카라사이트 institution was not considering ending its participation.
“We’re very pleased to be engaged in SWB and excited about 바카라사이트 prospects that 바카라사이트 programme brings for 바카라사이트 university and for 바카라사이트 students,” he said.
It is not 바카라사이트 first time that aspects of Science Without Borders have been called into question. Speaking to 온라인 바카라 earlier this year, Marcelo ?Knobel, associate professor at 바카라사이트 State University of Campinas’ Gleb Wataghin Institute of Physics, said it was widely known within Brazilian academia as “tourism without borders”.
So far, more than 83,000 placements have been delivered by 바카라사이트 scheme overall.
