4. Highly Skilled Migration Alternative Patterns of South-North Student Mobility - A Study of Indian Degree Students in Finnish and German Universities Jaakko Hyytiä (77972) Master’s Thesis of Education School of Education University of Tampere May 2012 ABSTRACT University of Tampere / School of Education HYYTIÄ, JAAKKO: Alternative Patterns of South-North Student Mobility - A Study of Indian Degree Students in Finnish and German Universities Master’s Thesis of Education 110 pages, 5 appendices, 6 tables, 6 figures May 2012 This study explores South-North tertiary student mobility from India to the EU. Traditionally, the vast majority of Indian students who aspire to study overseas have chosen the US, or another English-speaking country, as their preferred study destination. At the same time, very few of these students have opted for other, mainly western, countries. In recent years, however, the number of Indian students in EU countries like Germany, and even Finland, has slowly increased. This study’s aim is to disclose the circumstances in which, as well as the reasons why some Indian students have chosen to pursue academic degrees in Finland or Germany. Thus, this study seeks to provide a broader picture of the phenomenon by addressing the following three research questions: 1. What are the reasons and expected benefits for Indian students in applying to Finnish and German degree programmes? 2. Are there differences between students in Finland and Germany: a) Are Finland and Germany equally attractive as study destinations b) Have the studies met students’ expectations? 3. What are the students’ plans after obtaining their degrees? The theoretical framework of this study combines classical theories of migration and capital to more descriptive historical and statistical material. This is to ensure the reader a broad enough backdrop before proceeding to the empirical findings of the study. Even though the chosen methodological approach could be characterised as qualitative, basic quantifications and tabulations have also been used in analysis and presentation. The data has been collected using a web-questionnaire that consisted of 8 background questions and 12 open-ended questions. A total of 146 respondents, all Indian degree students in Finland or Germany, answered the questionnaire: 71 from 12 Finnish universities and 75 from 25 German universities. The results of this study show that the most common reason to choose Finland or Germany as a study destination was the good cost/quality ratio their universities can offer. The expected benefits from studying in Finland and Germany can be summarised as “soft” and “hard”. Soft denotes benefits such as cultural knowledge and new friends, while hard benefits translate as internationally recognised diplomas and up-to-date field-specific knowledge. The students did not always consider Finland or Germany their primary study destinations, Germany being a first choice more often than Finland. Overall, the students were quite satisfied with their studies, but partial satisfaction was more common in Finland. The majority of students enjoyed living in Finland and Germany, and would also stay for some time given that they would find meaningful employment. Advantages of studying in Finland and Germany were mainly linked to quality of life, safety, social security, nature, stable society, and freedom. Yet, a large part of the students saw their current host countries as places to gather experience and knowledge before moving to another, often English-speaking country, and eventually back to India.

The focus is on the experiences of Indian students across three space-time locations: before the students left India; while abroad in Toronto; and their return to New Delhi. The value of this research is two-fold. Firstly, my research helps to fill the lacuna in ISM research that examines the phenomenon through a gender optic. Secondly, there is increasing interest in Canada and other countries – evident in the media and government policy – in international students from India. The study is located at the nexus of gender and mobility scholarship; it adopts Gendered Geographies of Power as a foundational framework. The research employed a multi-sited, mixed-methods approach to data collection.

This is part of Out-Law's series of news and insights from Pinsent Masons experts on the impact of the UK's EU referendum. Watch our video on the issues facing businesses and sign up to receive our 'What next?' checklist. Concerns are growing over the extent to which UK higher education institutions will be able to access EU research funding post-Brexit. The extent of access that the UK will enjoy to funding for research from the EU's Horizon 2020 programme will depend on the terms of the country's exit from the EU which have still to be negotiated. Horizon 2020 is the EU's biggest ever research and innovation funding scheme. UK institutions should urgently investigate ways to safeguard or replace current sources of EU research funding, including exploring setting up EU-based subsidiaries. Horizon 2020 funding post-Brexit UK universities are likely to remain entitled to apply for funding under the Horizon 2020 programme after Brexit, although much will depend on UK-EU negotiations on the terms of the UK's exit from the trading bloc.

The motivation behind going abroad in the wake of Foreign Education ranges from Career Building to quality of education, Gaining Knowledge to getting Permanent Residency status. The state of Punjab once known as land of well built hardworking youth, Agricultural Produce, Rivers etc. is now seeing a very astonishing phase of migration of youth (students) to foreign countries (especially Canada) in the name of Education with eventual objective of being settled there permanently. Studying abroad is undoubtedly a unique opportunity to see more of the world, which is itself a hugely rewarding educational experience. There is no doubt that seeing other parts of the world will greatly affect character and worldview, and helps to prepare for life in a global world. Very few studies exist to identify the reasons behind this paradigm transformation in the thought processes of the people involved to arrive at a concrete conclusion and to find out why students leave their domestic territory and aspire to settle abroad.
