A recent leading piece of research published by Jisc and the Portulans Institute profiled Nigeria, India, China and Pakistan as four countries of particular interest to UK Higher Education student recruitment.
This session will provide Higher Education professionals with valuable insights into how a country’s civil digital infrastructure can impact international students’ digital experiences, including the unique challenges and opportunities faced during their transition to UK Higher Education. Actionable recommendations will be discussed to facilitate smoother digital border crossings, helping institutions create more inclusive environments for their international students. This will equip Higher Education professionals with practical strategies to enhance recruitment, improve teaching, and bolster support services, ultimately fostering positive experiences that empower international students to thrive
