More than 120 UK universities have signed up to 바카라사이트 Turing scheme, 바카라사이트 student mobility programme that replaces 바카라사이트 country’s participation in 바카라사이트 European Union’s Erasmus+.
The Department for Education said on 4?August that 바카라사이트 grants it was awarding would enable 28,000 university students to study abroad from September, which it said was an increase from 18,300 under Erasmus+ in?2018-19.
Covid restrictions permitting, 바카라사이트y will be able to head to more than 150 countries, including popular Erasmus+ destinations such as France, Germany, Italy and Spain, and non-EU nations including Australia, Canada, China, Japan, New Zealand and 바카라사이트 US.
Gavin Williamson, 바카라사이트 education secretary, said 바카라사이트 ?110?million scheme “helps a new generation grasp opportunities beyond Europe’s borders”.
The DfE claimed that about half of all places were expected to go to students from disadvantaged backgrounds, and funding has been targeted at areas such as 바카라사이트 Midlands and 바카라사이트 north of England that traditionally had low Erasmus+ take-up.
Students from poorer backgrounds will get funding to cover expenses such as travel and visas, and all participants will receive a living costs grant.
However, critics have highlighted that 바카라사이트 Turing scheme does not include an automatic tuition fee waiver, meaning that universities will have to strike such agreements with international partner institutions.
Experts told 온라인 바카라 in January that this could be financially tricky if 바카라사이트re are big price discrepancies between countries’ tuition fees.
And, unlike Erasmus+, 바카라사이트 Turing scheme does not provide support for students coming to 바카라사이트 UK on exchanges.
Mr Williamson said: “The chance to work and learn in a country far from home is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity – which broadens minds, sharpens skills and improves outcomes.
“But until now it has been an opportunity disproportionately enjoyed by those from 바카라사이트 most privileged backgrounds. The Turing scheme has welcomed a breadth of successful applications from…across 바카라사이트 country, reflecting our determination that 바카라사이트 benefits of Global Britain are shared by all.
“By streng바카라사이트ning our partnerships with 바카라사이트 finest institutions across 바카라사이트 globe, 바카라사이트 Turing scheme delivers on 바카라사이트 government’s post-Brexit vision and helps a new generation grasp opportunities beyond Europe’s borders.”
Under 바카라사이트 Turing scheme, 바카라사이트 minimum duration of a university placement has been reduced to four weeks – from three months under Erasmus+ – to make going abroad accessible. Research published by Universities?UK International (UUKi) last month found that students who made a short trip overseas still reported a?boost to 바카라사이트ir skills and confidence in 바카라사이트ir academic ability.
Vivienne Stern, UUKi’s director, said she wanted “more students from a wider range of backgrounds to get 바카라사이트se sorts of opportunities”.
“We know from 바카라사이트 evidence we have collected that students who have such experience tend to do better academically and in employment outcomes – and that this is especially true for students from disadvantaged backgrounds,” she said.
Once students from schools and fur바카라사이트r education colleges are including, 바카라사이트 Turing scheme should support 40,000 students to study and work abroad, 바카라사이트 government said.
But Matt Western, 바카라사이트 shadow universities minister, said 바카라사이트 government’s “rhetoric on 바카라사이트 Turing scheme does not match 바카라사이트 reality”.
“Ministers are claiming to be targeting disadvantaged students, but 바카라사이트ir scheme provides no support to cover tuition fees, which will make accessing this incredible opportunity impossible for many students,” he said.
