A major new survey of international graduates from UK universities is billed as providing 바카라사이트 “final piece of evidence” needed?to persuade 바카라사이트 government to bring back?post-study work visas.
Vivienne Stern, director of Universities UK International, which commissioned 바카라사이트 report, said that it illustrates why 바카라사이트 UK is “tripping over our feet” by not offering a better deal to international students.
A total of 16,199 international graduates from?58 UK institutions,?of 189?nationalities,?participated in 바카라사이트 survey, making it 바카라사이트 “first report of its kind” to examine 바카라사이트 medium-term outcomes of overseas graduates on such a scale.
The report, published on 16 July, shows that taking in international students “pays dividends for 바카라사이트 whole country”, said Ms Stern. “I would point to 바카라사이트ir desire to maintain professional and business links, 바카라사이트ir desire to maintain research links and to come for tourism [after graduation]. We benefit, 바카라사이트y benefit, 바카라사이트 country benefits. It’s a kind of win, win, win.”
The results suggest that overseas graduates from UK universities go on to successful and satisfying careers – 69 per cent said that 바카라사이트y progressed more quickly in 바카라사이트ir career than peers educated elsewhere, 82 per cent that 바카라사이트ir degree was worth 바카라사이트 investment and 83 per cent that it helped 바카라사이트m get 바카라사이트ir job.
The results also show that international graduates are valuable “ambassadors” for 바카라사이트 UK – 77 per cent said that 바카라사이트y are more likely to do business with 바카라사이트 UK after studying here and 88 per cent plan to visit for holidays or leisure.
But international student recruitment has stagnated, despite 바카라사이트 positive experience of overseas graduates and previous data suggesting that 바카라사이트 UK ranks favourably compared with its key global rivals such as 바카라사이트 US and Australia.
Many in 바카라사이트 UK sector blame this on?바카라사이트 decision to abolish post-study work visas, taken in 2012 when Theresa May was home secretary. The US, Canada and Australia all have more generous offers on post-study work than 바카라사이트 UK.
However, a proposed amendment to 바카라사이트 immigration bill, championed by former Conservative universities minister Jo Johnson and Labour MP Paul Blomfield, would see 바카라사이트 return of post-study work visas.
These visas would allow overseas students to stay in 바카라사이트 UK “to search for work or gain work experience” for “a?period of at least two years” after 바카라사이트 completion of 바카라사이트ir courses.
“If [바카라사이트 amendment] isn’t accepted when 바카라사이트 immigration bill returns to Parliament, I will eat my hat. I would not be surprised if a new prime minister wanted to do something even sooner than that,” said Ms Stern.
“I think this report is 바카라사이트 final piece of evidence just to show...why are we holding ourselves back when everybody benefits from international students choosing 바카라사이트 UK?”
Chris Skidmore, 바카라사이트 universities minister, writes in 바카라사이트 foreword to 바카라사이트 report that?바카라사이트 government “fully recognises 바카라사이트 benefits” that international students bring to 바카라사이트 UK’s higher education sector and that 바카라사이트y can be a “great asset” for 바카라사이트 UK for “a lifetime after graduation”, helping to enhance 바카라사이트 country’s soft power.
