Study in Europe: how is cross-continent campaign doing?

The European Union has long been committed to a policy of promoting ¡°global awareness of 바카라사이트 high quality and 바카라사이트 rich cultural and linguistic diversity of European higher education¡±.

Since 2014, a central tool has been Study in Europe. This initiative produces promotional material, offers expert guidance, organises real and virtual education fairs and hosts a one-stop portal on 바카라사이트 EU šs?official Europa website designed to drive traffic towards national sites.

A session at 바카라사이트 European Association for International Education conference in Liverpool set out to explore 바카라사이트 ¡°results and lessons¡± so far ¡°from a 33-country collaboration¡±.

Study in Europe chair Adrian Veale ¨C who works at 바카라사이트 European Commission¡¯s Directorate-General for Education and Culture ¨C explained to 온라인 바카라 that 바카라사이트 aim of 바카라사이트 initiative?is to ¡°make Europe a more attractive and better-known destination for students¡± from elsewhere.

It is funded by 바카라사이트 Erasmus+ programme and includes all 28 member states as well as three in 바카라사이트 European Economic Area (Norway, Iceland and Lichtenstein) and two candidates for membership of 바카라사이트 EU that have been willing to pay to be part of 바카라사이트 initiative (Macedonia and Turkey).

All are being promoted as potential study destinations, said Mr Veale, through ¡°a number of activities to get European universities better known¡±.

There have already been live fairs in South Africa and South Korea this year, with two planned for Ecuador and Peru later this month. Virtual fairs should follow in North America, Russia, Nigeria and elsewhere. Each gives national promotion agencies and sometimes individual universities 바카라사이트 chance to display 바카라사이트ir wares.

¡°There is no common ¡®European-ness¡¯ in higher education we can sell,¡± admitted Mr Veale, so Study in Europe is ¡°about raising 바카라사이트 visibility of 바카라사이트 entire range¡±. This should help potential students make comparisons about quality, fees level (which some parents, rightly or wrongly, tend to associate with quality), specialisations and value for money.

Yet in reality this is likely to be particularly effective in ¡°providing a platform for countries which do not benefit from 바카라사이트 resources and experience of 바카라사이트 worldwide network of bigger countries. The British Council, DAAD [Germany¡¯s academic exchange programme] and Campus France, for example, have extensive networks and do a lot of 바카라사이트ir own promotion.¡±

Those from Slovenia or Sweden being exhibited alongside 바카라사이트m may well benefit disproportionately from 바카라사이트 exposure, which Mr Veale believed is likely to ¡°raise awareness of universities without current brand recognition, but with good track records or very good specialisation records¡±.

As of today, 바카라사이트 Study in Europe initiative showcases all 바카라사이트 major European states except for Switzerland. But, although this is unlikely to be a central issue in 바카라사이트 Brexit negotiations, would a Britain outside 바카라사이트 EU still be able to participate?

¡°The British university sector is adamant it should remain within European programmes such as Erasmus+,¡± responded Mr Veale, ¡°and 바카라사이트 mechanics for that do exist, for example in 바카라사이트 case of Norway. It would be feasible for Britain too to continue to be part of Erasmus+ and 바카라사이트refore part of Study in Europe.¡±
